[quote user="amarocknrollstar"]Mission speakers?
I hate them! Steer clear - overpriced and underwhelming. Great if all you listen to is M-People![/quote]
Your opinion is yours and fair enough if you think that, but you're closing the door on one of Britain's best hi-fi manufacturers. I've owned Mission 751s and Mission &33i - standmount and floorstanders respectively. Build quality is excellent, sound quality is flawless. Their 752 and 753s didn't win countless tests or award for being rubbish either. Their designs slipped up from the early 2000s, but I have high hopes for the new 79 series. Looking forward to those tests.
By the by, both speakers I owned were excellent with all musical types - they do Motoread, Mozart or M-People, if that;s your thing. One of the very reasons why I bought them was they were so good with all music types. Buy with confidence.
