Mission 774, one of the best?

I friend of mine has this table and to be quite honest, it is quite amazing to say the least. Not that I have heard as many tables as some but whomever designed it put some serious thought into it. The tonearm that is on his table was the tonearm that preceeded the Mechanic. I do not know how much these tables went for initially but I have never seen one come up for sale. The only downfall with a table like this is where would one find parts? Has anyone else heard this table and if so, what are your thoughts on it?

I don't know anything about them, but it appears they were made by the same company as the Zeta tonearm. Maybe if your thread said Mission tonearm, or Mission turntable, it may stir
up some memory. I thought it was for a speaker at first.

I use to sell both the 774 and Zeta but never heard they were made by the same company; the original 774 had a detachable arm tube and was quite different from some of the later ones. Maybe it was the later ones which were made by the same company as the Zeta, I had stopped selling Mission by that time. They also had a cool looking solid state amp with a heat sink that spelled 'MISSION".
