About this deal

Modern twists, such as LED level indicators and all-encompassing connectivity options, make the 778X a truly contemporary integrated ampl A cookie set by YouTube to measure bandwidth that determines whether the user gets the new or old player interface. The front of the amp sports a pair of rotary controls – one for source selection, the other for volume – surrounded by white LEDs to show current status. The 778X doesn't stop there though, it also includes an excellent quality Bluetooth module to stream music from your smartphone, tablet etc making this amplifier a superb allrounder that combines modern features with a nod to iconic design. The 778X shares the original’s ‘half-width’ form factor which houses a low-noise 200VA toroidal transformer, a 30,000uF power supply and a Class A/B output stage that nets 45pwc into 8 Ohms and 65wpc into 4 Ohms.

With our commitment to competitive pricing, you can rest assured that you’re getting the best deal possible on top-of-the-line audio and home cinema equipment. Designed for easy placement in any HiFi cabinet, the Mission 778x boasts a compact and dependable design that adds a stylish touch to home decor.Yet, in its illustrious history, Mission was also responsible for some equally prolific hi-fi electronics. Missions 778X integrated amplifier represents a nearly four-decade obsession with sound for Mission. As such, after a brief thirty odd year interlude, Mission is back in the amplifier game and we need to decide if this is the affordable integrated amplifier you need in your life. Pay in 3 is a form of credit, may not be suitable for everyone and use may affect your credit score.

Modern twists, such as LED level indicators and all-encompassing connectivity options, make the 778X a truly contemporary integrated amplifier. There is a sweetness to its presentation as the duo powers its way through IN DREAM by Editors that works exceptionally well with the Rega and this is something you would use because it’s genuinely good and not because you didn’t feel you had a choice. Built around an ESS Sabre32 ES9018K2M DAC, it offers one USB-B, two optical and one coaxial inputs alongside a Bluetooth connection that is aptX and AAC compatible. Due to courier restrictions, we are unable to ship some large appliances to some remote postcode regions. Today’s Mission 778X maintains the influence of simplistic operation, large tactile controls, and a multitude of inputs.The Mission arrives in the budget amp segment with a specification that most rivals cannot match and a level of performance that is very hard to argue with. Bluetooth reception facilitates wireless audio streaming from smartphones, tablets and the like, with support for multiple codecs including aptX and AAC. British company Mission has launched its first new integrated amplifier in 40 years – the 778X, a substantial upgrade of 1983’s 778.

Capitalising on the modern-day trends of traditional styling with value in pedigree, the Mission 778X echoes a long-lost legacy in home audio, with stunning aesthetics. Much like the now-established and equally class-leading Mission LX MKII series, the QX MKII series takes an already phenomenal loudspeaker solution but refines it, optimises it, and brings even more vibrancy, finesse, and class, through a process of evolution, not revolution. We will try our best however if we are unable to do this we will still install connect to plumbing and put the appliance in situ.

Any purchase made through any other selling platforms will be subject to the Standard Warranty Period only. The pre-amplifier outputs can be used for connecting the 778X to an outboard power amplifier or subwoofer. Featuring Rigid Surface Technology and a new tweeter design, it’s built to eliminate distortion wherever possible. Like the original the Mission 778x sports a useful range of inputs, its circuitry has been entirely redesigned to meet and exceed contemporary standards, the new amp is a great sonic match for Mission’s current range, just as the 778 was in its day.

Oddly, I actually think it looks less noticeable in black script on the silver version so you’ll need to make a decision on that yourself. The Mission is a class AB amplifier and generates a useful 45 watts into 8 ohms which rises to 65 into 4. Traditional Amplifiers are generally 17″ wide and just don’t fit into a Kallax shelf unless you cut one of the vertical shelves out and make room for the amp. The 700 isn’t a hard speaker to drive and the controlled energy of the 778X does a fine job with them. The _ga cookie, installed by Google Analytics, calculates visitor, session and campaign data and also keeps track of site usage for the site's analytics report.Compared to both the Pro-Ject and the Rotel, it has fewer analogue inputs but I suspect it’ll be enough for most applications. Because this uses ESS Technology’s 32-bit HyperStream architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, it should provide great dynamic range and low distortion.
