Appropriate for PC setup, maybe small bedroom system. I am assuming the sound will be similar across the range, it just depends on what size area you are trying to fill.

They seem okay, I have not used them myself.
They are likely over priced at full retail not even considering the SD mindset.

On sale, likely worth it if you can not wait for JBL 530's, KEF Q150's or an ELAC B series sale.

I'd probably go with the larger woofer version

This LX3 MII was tested at ASR, did alright.
If you can read the Spinorama and other graphs there is a lot of info. You will still have to listen of course though the testing demonstrates a huge amount of what the speaker offers.

Their return policy is very confusing. So are they covered by 30 day return policy but only if the item has defects?!

Well, What HiFi gives almost all British brands 5 star reviews.
It is literally a British HiFi 'propaganda' mag.

That's the old version. This is the MKII, which, in theory, should be an improvement. But it doesn't always work out that way.

These sell for $279.99 all year long on ebay. So don't fall for the $469.99 price. Is this a deal? Yes. But it's only $80 off from the regular selling price.

Exactly. It's like Brits saying Range Rovers are the best cars/suv.

Mission speakers should be good. Its just not that popular in the USA. You are probably better off with a Q Acoustics or Cambridge Audio speakers.

That link is version 1. This deal is V2. It uses a 4th order crossover if you know what I'm saying.

Mission fan for many years here. Can't comment on these units as I bought their soundbar in their last deal. All missions I've ever heard about 10 types all have great tweeters. Compared a pair of bookshelves to B&W's dm 602 s2 and found the dm's bright with their metallic tweeter. The woofers on missions vary and when I had a pair of M72's with 6.5 woofer vs M31's with 5 inch woofer the tweeters sounded great and were comparable, but the smaller woofer lacked the oomph. They are British mid-fi bought out by a larger group. Can't thumbs up because of the return policy. Their mini bookshelves that used to come with Denon systems seem to hold value on eBay and they are over 20 years old.
