I went to a hi fi shop yesterday and I took along my Mission 760i's and the guy in the shop said that I woud have to buy B&W 800 series to hear a real difference, is this right? Thanks

I'm with Cno here. Most recent speakers sound very different, compared to your 760is: often brighter and more 'punchy'. They grab your attention more easily. But it's difficult to say if that's all for the better.
I have the 760SEs myself (and use them every day) , and I still like their sound. I'm now definitely looking for a major upgrade (after 20+ years that is), with better bass extension and a less boxy, more natural sound. But I'm aware I'll pay vastly more than I did for the Missions...
