Most be because they've run out but keeping the listing going. If you look at the 251 sold items they sold for about £5.

These are fantastic speakers. Somebody should buy them NOW!

Pretty aren't they.

Superb and very rare Radford Monitor 180 speakers. In Hertford. These are incredibly scarce and sound amazing. A bargain at the £250 opening price.

They use a 10" bass driver similar to the Goodmans Goodwood unit, two 3" Goodmans mid cones firing at 90 degrees to each other and two 3/4" soft domes in the same plane. All high quality units.

One of those things I've talked about before - when starting from 99p start, they would normally fetch a price of about £150, at least ones I've seen over the years.

When Buy-It-Now or a high start is used on a rare item, people without that knowledge or experience come along and just pay the higher price. So then a new precedent is set (and the next seller might try higher). Only takes the one buyer to bite.

Fair dos for the seller but the buyer could do better.

They can be tricky to live with.

They need tall hefty stands to work properly and a BIG amp!

A mate had a pair driven by a couple of NAIM 135s and it was certainly an exciting sound, but it took no prisoners. He had to adjust and change much of his system to get things reasonably civilised due to the ruthlessly revealing nature of the Naims and AE1s together. I was never convinced I prefered them to the Linn Saras he'd used previously. They were pretty dramatic (if coloured).

I can recall my father owning AE1's 20 something years ago. He always found them clinical sounding.

No doubt my Leak 20 will ''throw the white towel'' with the AE1's!

No, don't even go there.

Your Stereo 20 would sound just right driving my nice tidy pair of Eatons, which coincidentally are going up for sale at around £400 (ovno.).

By the way, I've dug out a pair of tweeters which should hopefully suit your Magisters nicely! Better than those (Tandy) horns I'd say.
