 "Build an Amazing budget system"
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, loitering longer than usual. Car amplifier with bass boost (like a Wudi C-266) will increase the volume of sub bass frequencies below the rated specs of the 701 (as I found with the 731, silk dome version). Amazing sound. These are superb speakers. Going to parallel them with a Focal FPX 4.800 amp, after refreshing the electrolytics (like for like), wirewounds and 12 awg OFC internal for woofer. This version of the Mission 701 is rare for a reason.
