Dont know much about Radford stuff, so dont know. Thought I would make it visible in case anyone faced a punt ...

I had one. Didn't like it much. The contemporary Cambridge P50 sounded a lot better.

To me this is a newer Radford, I love the old valve stuff, don't think the transistor models are held so high. I have an STA25, SCA50 and ZD50. The star is the STA25.

The first Leak transistor amps were a comparative disappointment too.

Not eBay but this has to be a steal - I mean I can;t believe he didn't put this on eBay would have sparked a bidding war, and ONLY £120:

So tempted by this Decca SC4E (the ultimate Decca?). But I musn't, 'cos it needs a rebuild and I can't splash out another £500.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2522636407...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

It's nearly gone anyway!

At £102 it went for a song!

Might be of interest to someone wanting a sensitive pair of speakers, the Forte was a good speaker

Comparatively Barry, but it showed surface corrosion on the iron parts, which no doubt extended to the internals and the diamond tip didn't look right to me. So if I'd bought it I'd have needed to send it to John Wright for a refurb and then I'd have wanted a line contact tip on it. Hence the £500 I quoted. :)

Yes but open to offers... they are part of the Heritage Range so I can assure you they are going to be very good...

Strange listing, this is for a single speaker.. and way over priced for a single speaker to be honest..

Strange one that. Why just a single RS3 ? They were supplied in pairs only.

Also, there is clearly damage to the grille and what look to be marks on the front badge, so not 'new'.

Might be worth a grand. What's a "Shure Empire III" cartridge? :scratch:

Stereo 20 maybe £400, the deck maybe £150, Tuner £100 tops, not 'Shure' about the cartridge ho ho, and pre-amp essentially worthless. Add some on for the valves, still can't see how it can be more than a grand unless you really want the cabinet. And you could have one made for a lot less than the price difference. Over-optimistic at £2600

Don't minty (like that one) Stereo 20s fetch more than £400? I'd have thought £500-700.... However, I'm no expert on this. It's a nice thing though, and perfect for someone wanting to complete their 1960s lounge with some hi-fi kit from the period :)

Marco.

Recently they go for between £450 and £800 on eBay - so £600 is would be more accurate. Fair point.

The guy is chancing his arm but given the interest in 'retro' among the bearded/sockless brigade there may actually be value in the fact it's all got up in a cabinet, most have been broken up long ago and this one isn't the worst out there by any means.

And how many do you have? :lol:

Seriously though, mine is missing a weight and only has one paddle. Also means I can send a wand for a rewire without losing the use of the arm. Plus I now have spares if I ever need them.
