For the past 45 years, Mission has become renowned for its speakers that break the rules in terms of price, technology, and design. At the same time, in its glorious history, Mission is also responsible for some equally productive hi-fi electronic products.

Thus, the Mission 778X is a revival of a classic Mission amplifier concept, which was the Mission 778 – an affordable integrated amplifier that offered simplicity in operation but excelled in driving speakers.

The current Mission 778X retains the influence of simple operation, large controls, and a plethora of inputs. It is a compact, 80s-inspired integrated amplifier that is fully equipped to meet the demands of modern music aficionados, from vinyl enthusiasts to digital users.

Modern elements, such as LED level indicators and extensive connectivity options, make the 778X a truly contemporary integrated amplifier. Featuring 65 watts (@4 ohms) of power through a modern and refined signal, it meets the high development standards of Mission speakers.

Phono Ready

The phono stage is based on a JFET-type circuit with precise RIAA equalization. It is optimized for MM cartridges and thus constitutes a high-quality, low-noise input without the need for an additional phono preamp.

Complementing the standard analog RCA inputs, there are digital and optical connections and an integrated Bluetooth receiver with aptX and AAC codecs, meaning the 778X offers CD performance via wireless Bluetooth connection. The convenience of streaming music from smart devices, such as phones, tablets, or computers, has never sounded better!

DACs the Way

This is not the only aspect of facilitating digital music. The 778X also features a high-performance ESS ES9018K2M Reference chip with 32-bit HyperStream architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator. In the world of digital music files, this means the 778X offers top-notch digital audio file compatibility with ultra-low noise, with a sampling rate of up to 384kHz (PCM) and DSD256!

Headphone Stage

Equal in performance to standalone headphone amplifiers beyond the price category of this integrated system, the design offers fast output signal transition thanks to a high slew rate. The result is a dynamic, detailed, and engaging experience with every type of headphones.

Labour Of Love

The overall performance of the Mission 778X is appealing, detailed, and refined. The details, rhythm, and dynamics excel, regardless of the source or medium. Designed for the modern music enthusiast with a nod to our heritage, the Mission 778X does not discriminate when it comes to the expression and enjoyment of your music playback.
