Mission m31i 2-Way Bookshelf Speakers, Pair (Graphite Black)

Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The stylish Mission m31i loudspeakers, which are designed to sit on a bookshelf or a pair of independent stands, are ideal for users who want superb sound without taking up excess space. Each m31i features a 5.12-inch DiaDrive bass unit, which is designed to offer the best attributes of soft fiber and high-rigidity cones in a single multilayer diaphragm. The resulting bass and natural midrange tones are dynamic and natural sounding, adding warmth and punch to the audio profile. The high frequencies are driven by an ultra-light, 1-inch Viotex fabric dome tweeter that offers an excellent dynamic range and a precise bandwidth that suits both home theater use (as front speakers) and traditional hi-fi stereo playback.

The speakers' i-series crossover, meanwhile, takes into account the baffle diffraction effect to give a more open and detailed midrange performance, with superior integration between the drive units for smoother treble output. The crossovers are also wired with Mission's special HP-OFC (high-purity oxygen-free copper) cable, which features dedicated bass and treble formulations to further enhance the audio clarity. In addition, the front of the speakers are curved to optimize dispersion, while the baffle shape is molded to cleverly enhance the diffraction effect. When combined with Mission's IDG format, the speakers deliver precise and spacious stereo imagery wherever you sit.

To enjoy the best performance within a surround sound system, listeners should consider teaming the m31i speakers with Mission's m3dsi rear satellite speakers, m3c1i center channel speaker, and ms8, ms10, or m3as subwoofers. All the speakers are magnetically shielded to protect against video interference and are tonally matched to ensure the best possible sound for movies and multichannel music formats. As an added bonus, the speakers take up a minimum of space at 6.7 by 10 by 11 inches (W x H x D) each--a perfect size for sitting on a bookshelf or stand (Mission's Stancette stands are sold separately). The speakers, which sport a stylish graphite black finish, are backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

5 out of 5 stars If Amazon gets these back in stock, buy them!.......2006-06-02

Great little speakers.

They need a little time to break in--they really do. I wasn't particularly impressed with them at first but after several hours of playing time, they begin to shine. So, give them a chance. Don't blow them off immediately.

They do great on a pair of speaker stands in my den with no particular attention paid to positioning. No, they're not going to blow you away with big sound and they're not going to sound as good as speakers costing several grand. I don't think you can beat them for the price. Too bad Amazon no longer has them in stock.

3 out of 5 stars Mission M31i Bookshelf speaker.......2006-01-13

I bought this speaker from here, and tons of thanks to amazon.com for FREE 2 day delivery! I was looking for some Bookshelf / monitor speakers and based on the Review from others I took a chance on this.
I opened the box and this is my first speaker set to be listened from Mission,connected to my HK receiver.I made the speaker clamp(back side) intact as I did'nt use like Bi-wire or Bi-Amp setup.
Played some audio CDs with spkrs positioned in conventional way to experience the sweet-spot and beat seperation. I just heard sound coming out of 2 drivers..just like the other speakers do.I mean I did'nt hear anything special from what I read reviews. The description/nice tech specs atleast should comprimise from the Mfr.But never. I asked myself whether I setup properly? so I checked all the settings in my receiver,spkr cable connections etc etc...the basics, and even the spkr cables are terminated with Gold plated Banana plugs on the receiver end. All good!!! But still I just heard a sound what these drivers are meant to be, intended to produce LF and HF. Nothing special! just a disappointment.
This piece is just a Mission brand name,fair finish,Bi-amp/wire connectors as long as I figured out.
I will listen to more and get back.If someone has better ideas to experience better sound from these please share with me to try. Meantime if someone really found a sound difference with this speakers, please post honestly to help buy other new buyers with confident.else don't post false reviews.
I selected 3 stars to not to spoil Mission brand,otherwise I would rate 0 or 1 with it's sound reproduction and cost.Even a KLH would sound better or surpass if they sell theirs at this price tag or little below, I bet!

Hello Mr.Edward D. Nelson:
Can you please tell me what's that 24Hour break-in for Bass? Will that affect performance of this speakers,if listened with BASS tone for the first 24 Hrs of operation?
Thanks in advance!

4 out of 5 stars Very pleased.......2006-01-06

I actually bought these speakers based on the reviews on Amazon and other sites around the net. Believe the reviews. These little guys are great for the money. I'm no expert, but I was really surprised by the clarity and strength of the bass. It's not that they're incredibly small speakers, but the depth of the sound that comes from them is, like I said, surprising. The mids and trebles are excellent as well.

5 out of 5 stars Exceptional Sound from a 2-Way System.......2005-12-30

This is my first exposure to Mission speakers and I am very favorably impressed. Physically, they are solid, well constructed in a pleasing design and come securely packaged. From a listening point of view, they'll blow you away. I purchased these speakers to upgrade a small stereo system in my home office and what an improvement! The treble is refined, clear and sharp. The bass is deep, rich, full of energy and without distortion. The speakers provide excellent stereo separation and imagery without undue regard to seating position. They do require some power though, so make sure your system has at least 25 watts RMS per channel to drive them. At their price point, they are a tremendous value and I highly recommend them. I would certainly buy them again.

I purchased these speakers to replace a pair of Acoustic Research 8" two-way bookshelf units I bought in college 40 years ago (I needed more shelf space above my computer). I am awed by the quality of the sound they create. I can no longer hear frequencies above 8 khz, so I can't comment on the high end, but the midrange and bass are outstanding, and the bass may improve with longer use, judging from other reviewer's comments. When I add the output from a 12" subwoofer, the bass only improves about 20 percent. These speakers are actually too good for computer use, so I have ordered a set of M30s (even smaller), and I will be moving the M31s to my home theater. If better speakers can be had at this price, I certainly want to hear about them. BTW, Amazon delivered these in just two days - great service. BTW2, I can't get the sticker adhesive off my grilles either.
