I don't know if this is of any interest, Jim:

Yes, it is. :-) Thanks!

The questions I have in mind now is if we could use the content as part of
the public ukhhsoc AudioDocs collection. We can certainly take a copy to
preserve, although wherever possible historians will want a printed
'original' copy if they are still available.

I've been contacting various companies, so guess KEF should also be
contacted. Just not got to them yet! Time to try...

I owned a pair of Calinda speakers for a while. They were rather too
bulky for my little house though and I had to eventually (and rather
reluctantly) sell them. They also needed a few watts to wake them up -
something that they also did to the neighbours in my terraced house.


Armstrong often used to use KEF speakers for demos and shows. They also
sometimes used our amps.

BTW I've been adding more Radford, JES, and Armstrong items to the ukhhsoc
AudioDocs. I've also finally got around to doing a sensible main page and
'upload / contact us' page, and linked things together. Plus set up a
ukhhsoc specific email address.

The main page is now at http://www.torrens.org.uk/ukhhsoc/

The content is now over 2,500 files (over 2GB) and growing at a pace set by
how much time and energy I have. :-) Still lots to add.

Cheers,

Jim
