When IAG bought Mission, all existing stock was/is being sold off at massive discount over their original asking price. For example, a pair of Mission Elegante E83's previousy sold for �2,000, but can now be had for �800. Those owners that paid the original price less than six months ago are reportedly 'spitting blood'.

Once current stock is depleted my understanding is that 'cheaper' production/materials will be used when Mission loudspeakers are manufactured in China.

My local Meridian dealer, who initially stocked the renewed (IAG) AudioLab brand have very quickly stopped selling this particular brand due to their poor reliability.
