Thank you for the personal review. There's much to be said comparing these 770's to Lintons with regard to performance to price point. I've always drooled over these 770's, but you're not the first person I've seen reviewing these against the more economical Lintons.

Amp looks to be good. One thing I this review is mentionening blue alps as something, while it is apkicated in amplifiers such as rega brio (850 EUR). Many amplifiers at this price point already have mauch more advanced volume attenuation (accuphase, luxman, soulnote, chineese preamps come with stepping(for 1K), schiit etc.). It seems like marketing for novices in hifi.

Hello. I really liked your review, but I was hoping of more comparisons with Lintons, since I am planning to get them. Which one do you prefer and why, and do you think Mission 770 is worth the price difference?

Despite both sharing a vintage aesthetic sonically these speakers couldn't be more different. It will entirely depend on your personal tastes.

These are all incredibly different sounding speakers, the sound signature of each speaker is going to play a bigger role than there performance in terms of room size.

And beware you can't run two sets of 4ohm speakers simultaneously as the impedance is too low and will shut down the amplifier.

What a disappointment. I just bought the Essential III base model with integrated RCA cabel. Mr. Lichtenegger seems to have introduced cost-cutting measures: no more premium "Connect it E" RCA cable, the USP of that model, but a mere 50 cent wire. And I was under the impression that Pro-Ject deliveres value for the money ... what a disappointment.

I took a similar approach, in a slightly different way. I wanted to power my Bowers & Wilkins 804s, but I didn't want to use the weedy amplification of my Denon AVC 8500 HA. My solution was to take the preamp out from the Denon and plug them directly into two monoblocks. in my case: Audiolab 8300MBs. At the press of a button on the back of the amplifier I can switch the input over to XLR connectors which are supplied from a Cambridge Audio Azur 851N Network Player (being used as a pre-amplifier) with all audio two channel Hi-Fi components connected to it. My Rel sub is connected at speaker level for Hi-Fi and sub out RCA for cinema. 250 watts per channel makes the speakers sing! 👍😎

Just got the 7000A I haven’t heard the other 2 models to compare but I totally agree with your descriptions. I’ve a pair of Q acoustic 3050i speakers and the combination is amazing, the sound stage, the depth and the separation of instruments is very good. The DAC is much better than the one in my Bluesound node streamer . The surprise was the phono preamp which is very good quality, I paired it with my Pro-ject spirit with Ortofon blue, very nice. Very very happy with this amp.

I got the 7000a to go in my parents house while I have the 8300a. The speakers are almost the same… wharfedale diamond 225 with the 7000a and diamond 230 with the 8300a. I haven’t tried an external dac yet with the 7000a, but just comparing the bluesound node and my 8300a, the tuning is very different. The 8300a is way way more neutral (even though both are mid focused), and as a result the 8300a does come across as a lot smoother to listen to… but I need to try the bluesound node on the 7000a before I can confirm this properly. Both are good depending on what you like to listen to… the 7000a will add more grit to male vocalists, so if you like Phil Collins go with the 7000a, but if you like Pavarotti , go with the 8300a. Both have good instrument separation…

Lintons have uncanny ability to make things sound better and with dignity. I tested Lintons with Rotel A14, which is nearly 2x as powerful as A11 Tribute, and A14 lacked juice in some tracks and types of music, and the stage could still be improved upon. I wouldn't drive Lintons with anything less than 2 x 120W or 2 x 150W.

Hope you do the same with a couple of floorstanders and this amp. I like standmounters, but you have to keep in mind that you have to pay for the stands the mount them on. Sometimes floorstanders make more sense in terms of bang for your bucks.
