How do Mission Speakers rate?


I am looking at buying new speakers, and someone mentioned Mission 775's. How do they stand up in their price range?

Don't pay more than $1000. for them. Bryn Mawr Stereo was selling them for 995. awhile back on clearance. I have heard them. They are very efficient and work well with low powered tube gear. They sound great. I own a pair of 702es (bedroom system)and I really like them. You might also want to consider the Soliquey 5.3 speakers. They are also very efficient and I saw a pair used either here or on Audioshopper for 1200. . Stereophile rates them class B. Also look at the Meadowlark Kestrals. They sell new for 1200. and although they are not as efficient as the previous two they can be driven with a forty watt tube amp with no trouble. It really depends on your related equipment and your tastes in sound.
