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.

I think my Mission 761i bookshelf spks. are fantastic. Beautiful mids/treble. I would think your 753's are exceptional spks as well. (I have always wanted to own the Freedom 752's. One day I hope.) I reached the point where I know what sounds good (Enough) and if it costs little $, so much the better. Bill

It is a misconception that gear has to have a "name". If it sounds good to you, then that's all that matters.

Enjoy your Mission speakers.

Mission was a respectable product just not super high end. I would say better than "mid-fi" also... just not very visible product at the moment. Big in late 80's early 90's.

Interesting. Thanks for the comments. My wife does not want Floorstanders in our living room so they are consigned to the basement for now. I haven't listened to them in a long time but remember them as being good on a lot of different types of music.
