Just got in from neighbours loft with a pair of Mission 754's in a very nice real wood looks like oak,i try and upload a picture. Anyway he wanted a tenner for them so i had to have them. I know nothing about these and cant find much about them, so does anyone know anything about them or had a pair?

    £10 ?

    I think they were about £1500 or so new on the 90's

    I remember Hi-Fi World liking them, but they pretty much did all mission speakers back then.

    The original 752 was excellent, apart from a slightly lively metal dome tweeter. I used a pair for a good few years.

    Word on the street (forums) is that the 752 freedom are the ones to have, and are very well liked for a 'budget' floorstander.

    Usually make about £200 - £250 second hand. Good find!

    My mates mate wanted to swap his Royd abbots for my 754's anyway he brought them round to my place with his amp and cd player,and we had a good listen to both speakers the Royds very nice but the Missions just pumped it out really nice tight deep bass and a very fluid mid and ever so sweet top end absolutely blew us away no wonder he wanted to swap so the Mission's are here to stay . Shame because i liked the Royds but just didnt get anywhere near the Mission's.

    Sounds pretty decisive to your ears...
    :)
    I'm guessing your friend agreed with you as he was the one pursuing the proposed swap!

    I don't know either of these speakers btw.
