    Not at that price. The KEF Coda III going on here for £25 are better by a fair margin in my book.

    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

    Having actually owned a pair of original (not freedom) 751s I can tell you that they punch well above their weight. In my view the 75 range are some of the best speakers Mission ever made. The 751s are bouncy and fun, the top is a little full on so maybe not best with bright ancillaries. There is a slight upper bass prominence but some open cell foam in the ports sorted this in my small to medium sized lounge very well indeed. They have a remarkable degree of clarity and openness for a smallish box. If you can get them for less than £100 then that would represent a bargain in my book, £100 is the most I would pay for a pair.

    Funnily enough Craig they replaced a certain pair of Focal speakers when I moved into a place with a smaller lounge
    Nottingham Analogue Spacedeck / Kuzma Stogi S / Benz Micro Ace S L
    Lenco L-75 / Carl Ellis Plinth / Ortofon AS-212 / Ortofon SPU Classic GM E MkII

    Not really in this case, TDL then was nothing to do with the quality speakers of yore (Studio TLs etc), in fact RS might have owned the brand at that point.
