Any thoughts would be great, no matter how opposed. I also hope to speak to any owner's of Mission or the 707.

Keep in mind this model sold a ton for Mission, so in spite of critics, the consumer side of things was up 'n up. I am looking for an efficient 2 way, 8 or 10" woofer, that has a lively sound.

Doesn't Target Hifi here in London carry Mission?

I was temped by a particular Mission model about a decate ago; don't remember the model but they did sound great. (I listened to them a Bay Bloor Radio in Toronto. Ever been there?). That model also received some great reviews. But it's struck me over the years that Mission reviews have varied greatly model to model. I don't recall about the 707 specifically, but for $100 you can't go far wrong.
