Does everything well. Bass is good (when present) but not there when it isn't! (Not all loudspeakers are like this). Excellent sound stage, very deep when fed decent material, and listening at 3 metres. I'm feeding mine with two stereo integrated amplifiers, so each side has a stereo amplifier, one channel feeds the bass/midrange units, the other the tweeter. This means up to 120 watts to the bass/midrange and up to 120 watt for the tweeter, b... More

I retrieved these from my local recycling centre electronic dumpster. The price was right. Of course the cabinets had a fair degree of scuffing, but nothing that would affect the sound. The sound when I fired them up is great. All drivers performing, no rattles, squeak or buzzing. It is truly amazing what people will throw out these days. They sound like they just came from the store to my admittedly senior ears. More

Pretty rare speaker from around 1996, frequency response 50-20.000 Hz, sensitivity 88 dB, rated 6 ohm. These speakers sound great, I have tried and used many bookshelf speakers and these, while looking like unassuming 'budget' speakers, are one of the best. They offer a very neutral and realistic sound, great stereo imaging with lots of depth, the mids sound very clear and are uneffected by the impressive bass (considering their size). The bass g...

Checked crossover, values differ from earlier 701's. 4.7µF 108℃ bipolar 10µF 108℃ bipolar 2.2Ω wirewound I presume the coils differ also. 'Upgraded' binding posts with low cost audiophile gold plated, which increased midrange prominence, but sapped the bass performance. Reinstalled original posts. Quick. More

Bought a pair that appears to be a revised edition. Rare, due to the version 2 tweeter. Build quality is excellent, Like new. Tested using Douk M1 Pro and 12 awg CCA cable. Android V4A DSP over Bluetooth (which isn't optimal for V4A, switching to RCA later), even so, the sound quality is clear, smooth, dynamic, refined. A lot of headroom for bass, EQ to taste. These are hypnotising when setup, listening to radio stations on Radio Garden, loite... More

Android without root app: Sound Beautifier. Bought a pair of Mission 731i for £30, ebay. Using a DOUK M1 PRO amplifier, 12awg CCA (it's good), Nakamichi banana plugs, all new. Total including the speakers was £120. Powerful sound, smooth and engaging. 731i sounds more detailed, 731 has tremendous bass. When you use DSP, especially with Viper4android, these speakers take on a different character. Perhaps beyond the engineers expectation. When se... More

I love these speakers. I grew up being interested in hifi/receivers/speakers in the early 90's. There were so many competing products at the time, with no internet to help differentiate what was really good and what wasn't (and not to mention, I was a kid with no money). I splurged on a Sony STR D1011S receiver from Crutchfield, but was still on the hunt for a pair of speakers to go with it. I went one day to Sam's Club (yes I know, lol)... More

I bought these in 1977 as replacements for my Wharfedale Dentons. They immediately sounded far superior. Manufactured in West Germany, this made it plainly obvious that these would sound better than Japanese-made speakers of the same price! They lasted me a decade and a half until l upgraded to tannoy J-95 tower speakers. The Sonys provided me, my first ever quality speakers with my original hi-fi separates system, which l kept again for q... More
