Product Overview

Mission QX-2 MKII is the larger of two bookshelf loudspeakers in Mission's affordable QX MK2 series designed for price-sensitive consumers for stereo and home theatre applications.

The QX MKII series is a step-up from the LX MKII unveiled last year. Each model shares the same dimensions with its predecessor, though new and improved finishes make them stand out. Each speaker features redesigned aluminum top and bottom plates.

In the QX-2 MKII, the 1.5" tweeter uses a textile dome with fixed center; the voice coil is attached partway down the dome. This setup prevents cavitation and reduces distortion towards higher frequencies. The 6.5" mid-woofer is mounted above the tweeter, which is a Mission trademark design. This helps equalize the path lengths to the listener.

The original QX series pioneered the use of serrations in the driver surrounds to minimize airflow interference. The MKII improves the design and effectiveness of this feature.

Essentially, the QX-2 MKII is rather a larger QX-1 MKII, better endowed for low-frequency performance.

The QX-1 and 2 MKII are joined by three floorstanders, QX-3, 4, and 5 MKII, and a center channel, QX-C MKII. There is also a matching subwoofer, the QX-12SUB MKII.
