Worth replacing speakers ?
I have a pair of mission 760 speakers connected to my AV amp which I am using as front speakers. They are pretty old and way before the time of AV equipment really.
What sort of money would I need to spend to get any better quality sound. I find them OK but they do sound a bit 'flat', but definately better then internal speakers on the tv. |

What AV amp do you have? What kit is connected to it and how is it connected?
The speakers may well be the weak link but suggesting a suitable upgrade depends on the system as a whole. |

As above post your system details.
These are speakers designed for music - will you use the replacements as a stereo pair for music or will it be for AV use only. Finally, what is your budget? Sorry for answering a question with questions but it's impossible to make a recommendation without being in possession of all the facts.

Go along to somewhere like Richer Sounds and see what they can demo you... I think you can even take along your kit and compare (if you arrange it in advance).
I'm currently using a 1975 pair of B&W speakers for my fronts. They beat my Panasonic system speakers into a cocked hat (IMO) for music but for surround film & normal TV the originals were fine. |

Still using a pair of Goodmans Maxim 3's for my rear pair that I bought in 1993. I think the fronts are B&W's I was given for a job I did for a hi-fi shop.
If I retire anything I keep them for other rooms. One day the kids might appreciate some old hifi instead of their ipod docks. |
