The pre/power amps are currently driving a pair of original Mission

which together sound staggeringly good.

This prompts me to see if I can find data on the impedance of the 752s

as
that may be relevant here.


They are known to be efficient - 91dB, nominally 8 ohms on paper. I don't
have data beyond that, but they were well-reviewed in their day (mid

90s),
so I'm sure there's plenty of into out there. IIRC HiFi World listed them

as
"valve-amp friendly" for their efficiency.


IMNVHO, the best speaker they made since the original Chartwell-driver
batch of 770s.


I haven't heard every speaker that they have ever released, but have heard
most from the last 10 years and many from the years before.
They are - to my ears - the best speakers Mission have made to date.
