Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but still, very sad, another of the Greats gone! :(

Just seen this. Ted Jordan RIP.

Sad, RIP Ted and condolences to his family.

I used to work for Boosey and Hawkes, and we used to market Jordan Watts speakers.

I still have a pair of Jordan Watts speakers, and two original Axiette 8's that I believe he designed whilst at Goodmans.

It is a coincidence that I used to work near enough opposite to the original Goodmans site in Wembley, but that was a while after they moved out.

Another name gone. Shame.

I remember visiting the Jordan Watts works just up the road from me in Hayes in the later seventies. I bought a pair of new 8 ohm modules from them. I'm fairly sure it was Ted's elderly dad who showed me around the place. Nice old chap, who hand picked a pair for me. He showed me how to align and tension the beryllium copper spring rear suspension and finished my units in front of me.

Yes, another name in the tradition of Great British HI-Fi sadly passed away.
