Mooie speakers van het engelse mission. Evt werkend te zien. Een zeer klein puntje rechterhoek welke van luisterpositie niet te zien is. Afmetingen: 950 x 255 x 370 mm gewicht: 15,6 kg
Condition is unknown, so the €80 ask looks fair to good rather than a slam-dunk bargain—but it is still in the right zone for a pair of Mission 703s. Recent market signals cluster around roughly €90–€140 for working pairs, with auction estimates around £80–£120 and sold listings landing near that band, so €80 sits toward the lower end and is attractive if they’re complete and healthy.
These are well-liked vintage floorstanders with a lively, punchy presentation and solid output for the size, which makes them a rewarding listen if you want classic Mission character. The upside is strongest if the cabinets are clean, the drivers are original, and the gold-plated links/grilles are present; at this age, a quick check for woofer surrounds, tweeter output, and crossover corrosion is worthwhile, but not a deal-breaker if the price stays at €80.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Mission Electronics, a British hi-fi icon, was founded in 1977 by Farad Azima in the UK, rapidly emerging as a pioneer in acoustic engineering. Azima, a former audio importer and distributor, infused the brand with innovative drive, launching the revolutionary Mission 770 loudspeaker in 1978—the world's first with a commercial polypropylene bass unit. This debut set benchmarks for clarity and bass response, propelling Mission to prominence amid the golden era of British hi-fi.
The brand excels in loudspeakers across sectors, from seminal 1970s and 1980s models like the 770 to high-end masterpieces such as the 2001 Pilastro, Elegante, and SX series. Under Peter Comeau's acoustic leadership since 1999, Mission has expanded into hi-fi electronics, including amplifiers and home cinema systems, while maintaining an engineering-first ethos. Now part of the International Audio Group since 2005, with production in Shenzhen, it leverages advanced manufacturing for components like cables and turntable ancillaries, though speakers remain its core strength.
Mission holds mid-to-high-end status, revered by discerning buyers for award-winning performance—What Hi-Fi? Best Loudspeaker (2000, 2001), EISA Speaker of the Year (2001, 2003)—and timeless appeal. A management buyout refined its retail focus, positioning it as a reliable benchmark against pricier rivals, blending heritage innovation with accessible excellence for serious audiophiles.
