Is it you?
Had to look up keen in the dictionary. If it is not only "engaged" but also a little bit knowledgable I would be pleased.

That's interesting Andy. I have visited this site several times, as I like vintage speaker units, as does our Grant (struth), who is running a pair of sixty year old 250mm Telefunken units. I have some Philips and Isophon full range speaker drivers. I like Japanese full range speakers too.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Sorry for the tardiness of my welcome Andy/ welcome to AoS mate/ Lot of vintage audio lovers here, and as Geoff say I have some Telefunken L242 alnico units. Nice gear and am on the look out for another 1 as I have a spare driver so I can make up another set some day.
anyways, enjoy the forum and hope to see some of your posts in future

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Had to look up tardiness in the dictionary first and then had a look at the Telefunken L242 speaker units
as seen on E**y 261939229694 for instance. These are in fact made by Isophon Berlin with Telefunken
OEM logo (see the typical basket and typical magnet structure). It does not mean a bad thing but so it is
manufactured at a time when Telefunken closed down their own speaker dept. It will not be easy to find
another one, but it is possible on german E**y. Isophon has been the main supplier for german radio
companies.
In the meantime the message function is activated ..

Gentlemen, probably anybody has a single or pair of these incredible speakers for sale?
Also looking for the Radford which we had in use in our company in the past. Thank you.
