    I wound up purchasing the Mission 752s. I, too, had trouble with a
    bright, clinical treble until I lined the phase ring/horn around the
    tweeter with a thin layer of felt. Problem solved, enjoyability
    increased immensely, with no loss of detail. I'm glad you're enjoying
    your Linns, but am passing this along in case you have any friends who
    find their 752 or 753 loudspeakers too bright or harsh.

    Hi Chris et al,
    Some years later (!), I am beginning to experience the over bright tweeter effect with this speaker (original 752), which I have owned for 25 years. This has come to light as a consequence of changing my source to a Cambridge Audio CXN V2 which has an
    onboard DAC, and which has highlighted the high frequency response which I had never noticed before. So my question is - can you elaborate on the felt-round-the-tweeter modification which you made? I might try it, but not sure what is involved.
    Regards,
    Marmite
