Hi everyone, I’m new here and would like to say hello to all members and at the same time share with you my latest find.
New capacitors ordered.
Your thoughts are very welcome as there is limited information on other sites.
I know they have Goodmans drivers and date to around 1972.
I have no idea of their value as I’ve not seen any sold.

Radford didn't make any poor speakers and these are no exception. Open back mid-range/treble separately enclosed from the bass driver - 50Hz - 25KHz, crossovers to die for. Some info here - http://p10hifi.net/TLS/classics/pdfs...duct-77-78.pdf

Value these days? Around £150 - 200 I would say. I have a pair of Studio 60 transmission lines....which money would not buy from me!

Hi, thanks for the info. Hopefully I’ll be replacing the capacitors tomorrow. Cheers

Should make a difference - I did my S60s - not spectacular but an audible 'lift' in the mid and top end.
