Hi,
just popped in to ask if anyone here happens to know the type and approx.
year of make of this
beautiful Goodmans driver. Just got me a guitar cab with 4 of these, made
by
a defunct Finnish
firm Maxim. Picture as attachment.
Thanks
Simon
As pictures are stripped off here, can you say what is written on it?

Hi,
just opened my message and the picture shows allright here!
But anyway:
the speaker has a cast frame, consisting of three times three thin spokes,
has "MADE IN ENGLAND" text near the edge. The magnet is about the size of
a vinyl single, with a label silver/green in color, saying Goodmans of
England, 12" (the size in very large numbers) loudspeaker,
type
sticker) C241A/1235/15 50 watt, made in England by Goodmans
Industries, Wembley England.
Googling the type got zero hits. Hope someone knows something about these.
Simon
That type of cast frame is the form that Goodmans (when they were still
a respected speaker company!) used for the later versions (around 1970)
of the Audiom 51/61 range and the Axiom 201/301. (If they are 12" that
is, the 15" unit was the Audiom 81)
These were the hi-fi versions with a plastic roll surround. Yours sound
like the PA versions with a plasticised corrugated paper cone
termination. Is this the case?
