I have a set of Mission 735's. Had them over 12 years now but have managed to damage them. Now claiming of insurance company for a new pair.
So was wondering what speakers are around that match them? Not been involved with the hi-fi world for ages so not sure what is good and what is bad.

Before anyone says why not repair them, i would if i could but Mission don't make the cones anymore and have run out of stock of them.

Basically just looking for a replacement set. Any advice would be great.

Cheers

Andrew

If you're getting the cash from the insurers probably best to get yourself to Richer Sounds and see what they've got. They'll let you take kit home and return after 7 days if you don't like it too.

FWIW I went for Kef IQ5s last year and can't fault them, but your budget might be a bit higher.

I've had Missions in the past, as well as B&W DM603's. Currently have Bose (rubbish). I like the look of these...

Try Wembley loudspeakers for repairs..... not much exists in the world of cardboard and magnets that they cannot sort.
