Description

The Mission 778X is a contemporary take on the iconic Mission 778 amplifier, combining vintage charm with modern audio performance. Its compact design, reminiscent of the '80s, houses a 65W amplifier that delivers powerful and refined sound. With multiple input options, including Bluetooth, RCA line, coaxial, and digital connections, the 778X is perfect for both vinyl enthusiasts and digital streamers. The integrated phono stage is optimised for MM cartridges, offering precise sound reproduction without the need for an additional pre-amp.

The JBL Stage 260F floorstanding speakers deliver exceptional audio performance with a focus on clarity and depth. Featuring dual 6.5-inch ribbed cone woofers for deep, impactful bass and a 1-inch anodised aluminium tweeter for crisp highs, the 260F provides a balanced and dynamic listening experience. The patented High-Definition Imaging (HDI™) waveguide ensures wide sound dispersion, making these speakers ideal for music and home theatre systems.

Mission 778X 65W Integrated Amplifier with Phono & Bluetooth

  • PHONO READY: JFET-based phono stage offers precise RIAA equalisation. Optimised for MM cartridges, no extra pre-amp needed. RCA line, digital and coax connections complement Bluetooth receiver with aptX/AAC, providing CD-level audio streaming from smart devices. Convenience and sound quality like never before.
  • HIGH-QUALITY COMPONENTS: That’s not all in terms of digital music facilitation. The 778X is also equipped with a high-performance ESS ES9018K2M Reference chip with ESS Technology’s 32-bit HyperStream architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator. In the world of digital music files, this means the 778X offers class-leading, ultra-low noise digital audio file compatibility, with a sampling rate of up to 384kHz (PCM) and DSD256
  • HEADPHONE STAGE: Equal in performance to standalone headphone amplifiers beyond the price-class of this complete system, the design offers high-speed output signal transition thanks to a high slew rate. The result is a dynamic, detailed and engaging performance with all manner of headphone types.
  • ALL ROUND PERFORMANCE: The Mission 778X’s all round performance is engaging, detailed and refined. Designed for the modern-day music enthusiast with a nod to our heritage, the Mission 778X does not discriminate when it comes to expression and enjoyment of your music reproduction.
