Quite true! I will likely move a few pairs on over the coming months. I'll be keeping the 75s (and possibly the Studio 0.5s) though 😉

I have enough amplification to drive them all together. It's a thing I may try for a laugh at some point!

Oh absolutely. But this just does the telly, at low volumes in my bedroom so isn't really an issue. Wouldn't set the main rig up like this!

Everything works, bar the first edition 780s slap bang in the middle. Blew the woofers out on NYE in the pub a few years ago. Have a donor set of 753s so just need to transplant drivers. Why so many? I just like speakers. And I'm possibly a bit weird, I dunno 😂

I've pretty much done the same, just not all at the same time! 731, 732, 760i, 761, 761i, 771e, 773e, 780 (both versions), 781 (new version), 751, 752F, 753 Still have 6 of those now 😉

😂 The spray is to service a few scratchy amps. It just happens to be where it is! My favourites are any of the Missions. If I had to choose one at gunpoint, I'd probably say the 752F

I have 751s with a Marantz 6004 on the PC, and upgraded 753s (tweeters, x-over) with an Audiolab 6000A on the main rig. Photos when tidied... The 752Fs have new Seas tweeters, and are absolutely phenomenal. If I sell others, it'll be the 75s that stay!

Well, the speaker side anyway. I've thought about thinning the herd quite often, but it never seems to happen! Also have Mission 753s in the lounge, and 751s on the pc rig. This is my bedroom. Telly sounds via A400, and currently the 761s...

Sold a pair of Celestion 66 many years ago now, for far too little money. Didn't realise what I had at the time... Never really forgiven myself for that, easily my biggest hifi mistake.

I've got 751s on the PC rig, 753s on my main setup, and 752 Freedoms in the bedroom (yeah I'm single...). Got some 780s (both first and second editions), and some 761s in my hifi heap in the spare room too. I've upgraded the tweeters in both the 752s (successful DIY) and 753s (professional...

I have a penchant for mid-90s gear - the stuff I lusted after as a teen, but couldn't afford at the time. Have a lot of Rotel kit (two integrated amps and a three-box pre/power combo), TDL speakers, at least five pairs of Missions knocking about. Still love all of them, can't bring myself to...

I'll chuck up both tracks from my favourite accidental vinyl purchase too... Stripped Down Funk just shades it for me, but both absolute bangers, imho View: https://youtu.be/6JnvJyoqemQ?si=L6o0-dpyZOpx97Ga View: https://youtu.be/EvrgrI5ggDU?si=vM4-0I0NJl_aC2lN

Most of you will probably hate this, but each to their own, eh? :cool: View: https://youtu.be/TgAcDNiM040?si=g9bMrQO_mCzuophi

My next purchase will be a crossover upgrade for my Mission 753s. Had the tweeters done already, and wow...

Update- Just swapped the tweeters out for Seas HO-881 units. I bought these for the 752s in the first place, but they were too bright and aggressive. Decided I wanted to try again, as they're higher quality units than the Vifa models I have been using. I've taken a decibel off them with a...
