Mission 750 Bookshelf Loudspeakers (pair)

A two-way standmount with an 5.25″ bass driver and a warm, rich, natural sound. Made in the UK

Following in the footsteps of the award-laden flagship Mission 770, the all-new Mission 750 brings the award-winning ‘modern-classic’ design to a whole-new price-point and category. The series heralds the return of UK-based manufacturing for the Mission brand, where a 25,000 square foot production facility has been purpose-built in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire – the home of British hi-fi.

The original models were well known for their warm, rich, and natural-sounding character, and the new Missions retain that standing but imbues it with an open, detailed performance that will entice you to explore your whole music collection once more.

Redesigned From Inside Out

A new polypropylene mid/bass driver was developed for the re-engineered 700 series, mimicking the extended response and low coloration of the original, while upgrading the motor system to take account of modern power handling and dynamic requirements.

Like the original, the driver is built onto a die-cast chassis with large rear ‘windows’ to reduce early reflections back through the cone. Special care has been taken to marry a low-density nitrile surround to the cone, to match its impedance and reduce reflections from the cone edge.

The new polypropylene cone is loaded with minerals to make it stiffer than the original, yielding fast, tight bass that enables the listener to hear exactly how bass instruments are being played. This is balanced by tuning the cabinet and reflex port to a very low frequency, avoiding the ‘one note bass’ that is typical of a lot of bass reflex systems. In addition, the port is strongly flared at both inlet and outlet to smooth airflow and eradicate distortion. 

The woven textile soft dome treble unit with a high flux ferrite magnet, is engineered for smooth, detailed HF extension. This new treble unit uses a lightweight, damped microfibre dome with an ultra-smooth response, backed by a damped rear chamber that pushes the fundamental resonance well below the crossover region.

The drivers and the highly researched all-new crossover are housed in a real-wood veneered cabinet with a white laminated front baffle echoing the style that made the Mission 700’s a stand-out hi-fi product in the 70s and 80s.
