Mission 753 Floorstanders?


I have a pair of Mission 753 Floorstanders sitting in my basement. I bought them 20 years ago but have not used them in 10 years. I see no threads or interest here in Mission speakers. Does anyone have info or opinions on how Mission is viewed in the audio world?

I assume that they are of a quality lower than what the typical Audiogon poster would ever use. Thanks.

My first truly great sounding system was a pair of Mission 717's, driven by a really nice Yamaha receiver and a B&O Beogram 3404 turntable. I bought it all in the autumn of 1982, and enjoyed the music through the Missions until 1997, when I "upgraded" to my current Vandersteens. From what I remember, the Missions were wonderful speakers, true to the music and non-fatiguing. My LP collection of classic rock, blues, and jazz got along quite well with the Missions and the rest of the gear.
