Shaun (Shonver) had a pair going a while back?

It may be a mission getting hold of a set.

I can see that. They seem to be very old speakers and very well loved...

I'm still on a mission to get some speakers. The reciever was delivered  this morning, so Now I'm going home with nothing worthwile to connect to it.
At this stage it looks like I will connect my cheap sansui 40watt speakers, and just play them on the low end. I do not want to damage the amp yet. (those sansui's are 4 ohms)

Ok, final push for this.


Looking for either Mission 760i or Mission 750 perhaps.
Make me an offer please.

I'm only searching for those legendary 760's
If by early next week I have not found them, I'm taking a drive to Pappa3 for those MSi20's

You may want to check this:
http://www.avforums.com/forums/speakers/1056013-mission-760is-no-bass.html

If it's correct the Missions only go down to 70hz; with 25-75 watts into 6 ohms. 
The MS go down to 50hz.  15-100 watts into 8 ohms

If you're looking for something with decent bass, 20hz is quite a difference

Thanks for the heads up PAPPA3!

Ok So I withdraw this request. I'm sticking with the MS. Lets see what the courier costs will be tomorrow, otherwise I'm taking a drive there.
70hz really is a bad rating.
