Are these people nuts?
Who in their right mind would bid over £150 for a single Goodmans Maxim speaker? I've owned these things and by modern standards they're rubbish. I bought my last pair at a boot sale for £8 and that's about what they're worth.

It is a bit silly to pay that for one Maxim alone, but I think you are being a bit harsh on them in general Geoff. I used to own a pair of Videoton Minimax 2's which are almost identical and they were pretty darned good. I suppose it all depends on what you pair them with and your own personal tastes. I would not pay a penny over seventy quid for a pair however :cool:
Well Dave, I've bought a few pairs of Minimaxes at boot sales too and would class them as just marginally better than the Maxim.
Neither did much for me and I reckon your £70 is too high. They are really only of value to collectors and can no longer be regarded as proper 'H-Fi'.
Of the era, the original 'C' series KEF Codas and Celestion Ditton 10s were probably the best ultra compacts about. You don't see many of either now, largely cannibalised for their drivers I imagine.
