Speakers advice please

CD player arrived this morning sounds very nice can I improve sound with other speakers on my stands ? A lot of bass and treble would like more detailed vocals

Yes. Mission speakers over the last few years really don't do much for me.

If you're on a tight budget. Keep your eyes open for a pair of these near you: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MORDAUNT-S...item3aa62fc048

They are reliable and offer an awful lot for the money. They'd run circles around the Missions and are an excellent match to the NAD amp, they are from around the same period too, which is nice. The Pageant II speakers crop up on eBay often and a pair near you will no doubt turn up. Usual price is somewhere between £50 and £80.

Obviously they are not the only option, but they're good.

I assume you have the tone controls flat

tone controls in middle settings on amp analogue and digital lights on CD player more noticeable instruments on here than on nad it's growing on me ! Tone controls off doesn't alter sound much

Try using the tone controls to alter the tone.
