Mission 770 Standmount Loudspeakers I'm selling my Mission 770's. These we're purchased from Audio Influence in August 2023. They and their matching stands are in perfect condition. The grills have never been attached. Original packaging and all accessories included. 3 shipping boxes in total - one for each speaker and one for the stands. Remainder of 3 year warranty. Audition welcome and receipt available Condition: As New / Mint Payment Method: EFT, Cash, OSKO Region/State: (QLD) Queensland/Australia By Denis Sweeney 0 Comments AUD $3,300 Date: August 6, 20241 yr
The Mission 770 stands out for its lively, detailed sound from the 1990s British hi-fi golden era, blending punchy bass with an open treble that punches above its vintage price point. At AUD3,300 with unknown condition, this sits below the typical used market range of AUD3,930–4,477 (median AUD4,200 from recent comps), marking it a potential bargain if it's solid—but the opacity on wear demands caution.
Buyers should insist on close-up photos of the drivers for tears or cone damage, plus a full functional test listening for distortion or channel imbalance, as these foam-surround speakers often fail from age. Verify original grilles, spikes, and manual are included, and probe the seller on service history to dodge hidden recap needs.
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.
