Mission QX2
2-way bookshelf speaker from Mission, with 165 mm composite woofer and 38 mm textile tweeter, for hi-fi or home cinema listening in a compact format.
Description
The Mission QX2 is a 2-way bookshelf speaker belonging to the QX range from the British manufacturer. Compact, it is suited both to a stereo hi-fi setup and to a home cinema system, as a main channel or as a complement to an existing system.
Bass and midrange are handled by a 165 mm woofer with a long-fibre composite cone, a material choice aimed at combining lightness and rigidity for precise reproduction. Treble is delivered by a 38 mm textile tweeter of the Ring Dome type, designed to render detailed high frequencies without harshness. The crossover frequency between the two drivers is 2.2 kHz. The stated frequency response spans 44 Hz to 24 kHz at ±3 dB, with bass extension down to 38 Hz at −6 dB, indicating a fairly extended low register for a speaker of this size.
With a sensitivity of 88 dB and an impedance of 4 Ω compatible with 8 Ω, the QX2 accepts a recommended power of between 25 and 120 W. It can therefore suit amplifiers of modest power as well as more powerful configurations, making it a relatively flexible speaker to use.
This model is aimed at a listener seeking a versatile bookshelf speaker, capable of fitting into a medium-sized living room, whether for everyday music listening or to reinforce a multichannel system. Its compact dimensions of 320 × 220 × 310 mm and weight of 8.5 kg make it easy to place on furniture or on stands.

What to check before buying used
Check the condition of the 165 mm woofer's suspension: a sagging cone or cracked, detached surround indicates a tired example and will degrade the stated bass extension down to 38 Hz. Also inspect the tweeter's textile dome, which is prone to deformation and perforation from impact. Finally, check the cabinet and veneer on the panels, as well as the fixing of the front grille, which is often marked after years of handling.
