Offered is „751“ by Mission Lautsprecher as second-hand device from the category „Bookshelf Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8697014544 ends on 18.10.2026 at 14:59 o'clock.
At €290, this sits above the recent used median of €232 and also over the 75th percentile at €261, so it’s a bit ambitious rather than a bargain. It isn’t wildly out of line for a clean pair, but the price leaves less room to negotiate than I’d want on a vintage bookshelf speaker.
That said, the Mission 751 is well liked for its lively, musical presentation and strong midrange, with enough charm to make a restored pair a very enjoyable buy. If the cabinets, drivers, and surrounds are clean and it includes the original grilles or any stands, it becomes more appealing; otherwise I’d treat €290 as a ceiling and look to haggle toward the mid-€200s.

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.
