m71i loudspeaker
You might think that Mission’s m71 is a hard act to follow. Winner of a What Hi-Fi? Best Loudspeaker under £150
award, and awarded the prestigious Diapason D’Or in France, m71 had to be the budget speaker to beat. Yet
Mission have taken the m71 and simply made it better.
For Mission’s new m71
Cabinet bracing has been revised to improve panel stiffness and reduce coloration, whilst crossover redesign has
resulted in improved bass performance, increased midrange dynamics and smoother treble detail.
The Mission m71i is a compact loudspeaker suitable for stand or shelf mounting. Exhibiting a lively and highly
detailed mid-band, the m71i matches this to an astonishing low frequency performance seldom found in a
compact enclosure.
The m71i will find favour with listeners who have limited space but are not prepared to sacrifice low frequency
dynamics or musical enjoyment.
The combination of good bass reproduction, detailed transparent mid-band and silky-smooth treble output is
rare in small affordable speakers, making the m71i an outstanding speaker for music reproduction of the front
channels in a compact home theatre installation.

setting up
• RUN IN for at minimum of 24 hours with music programme.
• Place within 10cm — 30cm from rear wall, smaller rooms need less distance.
• Utilise optional resistive loading to optimise bass performance for wall-mount locations.
• Stand mount on a rigid Mission stand for optimum results.
• Ensure minimal toe-in is used, imaging will be impaired.
• May be used with any competent budget electronics. Will clearly show improvements as
source improves.
Note: The recommended amplifier power rating is for undistorted power. Loudspeakers will be damaged by
amplifiers overdriven into distortion, no matter what the power rating of the amplifier. For larger rooms or high
listening levels it is safer to choose an amplifier with a power output near the maximum rating of the loudspeaker.
