Quite so, and Bailey also helped improve the STA series amplifiers.
My recollection is that the STA series II and III were
established before the co-operation between Arthur
Radford and Dr Bailey began.
I also recall that on a visit to Ashton Vale,
we listened to and were impressed by a
transistor amplifier that Dr Bailey had designed.
I
suspect that the Bailey/Radford patent was restricted to the UK,
whereas B&W were after world-wide recognition for the Nautiluis.
It would be intersting to know for certain.
Do you have the time to do a liitle
research?
