been looking at this speaker a while, seems like a nice build quality, i like the design and its about the right budget for me.

Anyone own newer Mission speakers or know anything about them, i cant find much online. But i have heard a lot of good about the mission brand so... what do you think?

Sorry, I can't help.
I had small Mission bookshelf series 700 many many years ago, and I loved them.
I have no idea about the newer models. I just hope they sound just as good.

Good luck!

They look impressive. I wonder if ASR has tested them.

Hmmm... well... with all the import/export issues going on, that might not be all that surprising.
