Definitely a bargain going for £41. If they are in champagne and/or have the wooden side panels these can go for > 200 Euros in Germany.Quote:

Advice needed as i fancy a punt on this, anybody have an inkling what might be wrong and likely cost of repair?.

Hmmm this may have been a bargain, but on the other hand maybe not:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-T-2-Tuner-/300983809563
The description reads "Auf funktionalität nicht geprüft" which translates as "Not tested for functionality". Seems a lot of money for an untested sample, especially as there is clearly a plug attached!
Hi guys, how does the Goodmans Minister SL compare to the rest of their range?
It is the worst of the Magnum range Filipe.Quote:

All IMO/IME :)
EDIT: I'm sorry, I read that as Magnum not Minister... I have no experience of these but I'm sure someone will be along shortly :D
Felipé,
How'bout these.

Thanks to both of you, I'm kinda ignorant when it comes to Goodman's gear!
The Minister SL was very much a budget speaker. It used a roll surround version of Goodmans cheap 8P PA bass unit and as a midrange it used a cone driver that they actually used as a tweeter in some designs. The tweeter is another cone driver of the same size. I've used the various Ministers and all I can say is that they work, but they aren't wonderful. If you want something British from the same era that sounds good, look for a pair of Celestion County or even better Ditton 15 speakers, KEF Chorales are nice too, but going up in price.Quote:

No Hifi but he took my offer up for it, perfect for my 60's pit :eyebrows:

O your talking some money for one of those James..
I was gonna go for this, even though it is 1960's it's more fitting with the 1970's, our sofa is an original 1967 sofa & wouldnt look right with it
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Re...item3cd6e5c802
Yeah thats why I havent got one :lol: ... :(Quote:

Now that is an advert of utter, utter distinction. Fantastic, thanks for that Andre!

Odd choice for a subtitle :scratch: cant see that helping it sell ! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Leak-Stere...item43c0cadc4e
Could be interesting... Rather optimistic opening price though... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/bang-olufs...item33867a0d31
They're Bang & Olufsen type Ks. Predecessor to the better-known Beolab 5000s from the 1960s and designed to go with B&O's low powered valve amplifiers - they don't like much more than 25 watts up 'em apparently.Quote:

Tannoy Cheviots. Apparently "These are getting very rare".
Ah well, that must explain why I see so many up for sale! :eyebrows:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tannoy-Che...item2583fd8b17
Yes that was rather good. At least nobody can accuse the guy of trying to mislead!Quote:

£445 for a pair of old speakers that the seller admits knowing nothing about. I've never heard of them, but they look like budget seventies fare to me judging by the economy tygan grille cloth and the elliptical main driver, which is almost certainly a cheapo EMI unit and they're not even in great condition.
