I have too many speakers.
Mission 761 are hooked up to the TV SOLD
JMLabs Primo are idle at the moment NEW Price: £75
Not sure I want to get rid of both as I prefer TV with some external speakers. But if both go I can build some with the drivers I have lying around - CHR-70 should do well as a TV speaker 🙂 )
Let's see about the interest in any of these.
JMLab Primo is as far as I know the first speaker from JMLabs. It is a 2-way bass reflex speaker. It features very nice 7" Focal midwoofer unit. The surround is rubber so it still has many years to go.
You can see the condition of the speakers in the photos. The corners are in various state. I have posted the picture of the worst case. In general there are no major scratches on the sides. Maybe some superficial ones on the bottom. The tweeters chassis have some cracks from overtightening screws, but this does not influence the motor of the driver.
As for the price I find it hard to mark them. I saw that a pair of new woofers cost about £265. So how about £130 for these speakers?
Missions 761 probably do not need any introduction. Nice compact 2 way sealed speaker featuring outstanding Vifa C17WG and Vifa D19. I am using 2x Vifa C17WH in my copy of Troels Gravesen's C17 Appolitos btw - higher sensitivity though; also some of Living Voice Appolito's are said to have used custom made C17WH. I would say they are in really nice condition (but please check pictures of one grills). There are very minor imperfections in one corner per speaker (see pics). Otherwise they are fine. The woofer surrounds are foam, but it seems to be in good condition.
How about £60 for these?
Both speakers work fine and can be demonstrated (obeying Covid rules - let's hope it will get better soon).
I think I would offer them "collection only" from Wanstead, London (1min from A406, 5min from M11).
I said that JMLabs are idle atm. It does not mean Mission sound better. In fact JMLabs are better sounding speaker, but Missions are a bit smaller so having pretty big speakers in the other room I thought my wife would appreciate smaller ones at least in one room...
Let me know!

I gave away my Missions a decade ago and would love another pair. Pity you are not local
whoever grabs them, will be delighted by their abilities

Yes, they are really nice little speakers.
As I said above not sure all will go. But one pair less here would be good.
But then I could make place for a diy speaker.
