These speakers are excellent and so underrated! And used prices are ridiculously low. The metal dome tweeter is very revealing and is often blamed for being "harsh". That "harshness" has little to do with the metal dome and more to do with the choice of amplifier/source components. Smooth sounding amplification, such as Quad, and a high quality turntable - Linn Sondek - will make these Rogers speakers sound superb.
I always wondered how many they had to redo it cause he didn't grab the glass in time.
I can't believe you posted a video of you hitting a power button.
@@HappyHighwayman hope you enjoyed the video 😁
@@playbackvintagehifihunter9669 After some practice and patience I was able to figure out how to replicate this action with my own amp
Not everyone has the same learning abilities, glad you finally got the hang of it 👍
@@HappyHighwayman i see you deleted your previous replies?
@@playbackvintagehifihunter9669 I did not. They are still there. If you don't see them I can't help you.
What is the name of the music? Can you please tell me the artist and the title?
Hi sorry I forgot the music title
The rubber surounds seem to have lasted well !
Does it need extra woofer
They are known for their Bass performance and in reality it's quite true. Overall they provide plenty of punchy bass. All depending on your preference. If you really like bass, then all systems would benefit from at least one sub. However, if you're happy with a balanced sound, then these are happy without a sub.
Listened to my singles on one of these in the early 80s, Nik Kershaw, Adam and Ants. Great times, terrible sound quality.
What cartridge was on the Thorens? Please.
Id love one of these
Excellent table i have one,i prefer it than my new rega 2
My first Tape-Deck back in 1978
Why did i watch it, bit by bit😂❤
Why?how? ...quuuuuality❤❤
Classic!!!! 😉🤣🤣🤣
Did you know "Even after 500 plays.." is not the only version released of this ad?
How do these compare to the Celestion DL4's series 2?
I much prefer the 3's For me the DL4 series 2 sounded too boxy and slow compared to the 3's
@@playbackvintagehifihunter9669 Thank you!
Those look like Jensen's Model 2. You either replaced the woofers or at least the surrounds. I have the Model 6. This line of Jensens in the 1970's had great natural sound. Very easy to listen to hours on end.
Thanks for watching. Yes, I had to replace the old foam surrounds.
Thanks for posting this,thought mine had an issue when light flashes back on,cheers
Hello. I just bought one today from a second hand store. Full of dust and dust dirty but it’s working great. I will clean everything and start using it. Great vintage unit. Did you recap something there ? Thank you.
@@BmcvideoDesign congratulations! No, I've not done anything to it.
I remember lots of advertising in the music press at the time for wharfedale, Celestion and Goodmans loudspeakers (around 1977) but for some reason I never saw a review of goodmans stuff. Used to see them on the shelves in a local Trident store in Warrington
Get the fm300a clone, you'll be satisfied
Much better build
@@playbackvintagehifihunter9669you should watch the review by German RUclipsr, incredible amp even is a clone
Ya, man !Try finding quality like this clone for under 750 $CDN .I love mine !
@@alaingingras7224 dude I just got the weiliang a100 1969 clone, the bass is even better than the fm300a, I was blown away
Using this nice amp too bad suddenly can't turn on
Hope you can get it repaired 🤞
Put a HUGE smile on my face 😊 Wonderful!♥
ollie and jerry.... awesome song!
33 ;-)
Brilliant! Thanks for posting 😂 Jim🏴🙂
Cheap crap
Built to a budget
Name of song
Hello! The front side is aluminum or plastic?
Plastic I recall
I have a 1700 and need new styles or cartridge if I have to go that route
There is a pair of these near me for 100 dollars is it worth it?
Fully working and in good condition. Yes
@@playbackvintagehifihunter9669 they look in very good condition but no gills he said he will send me a video
Simple yet effective Hitachi speakers, probably from a 70s all in one console system. I love Hitachi gear from that period, 70s into early 80s. Shame they left the hi-fi business but then how many of those original manufacturers even exist anymore or do any make their equipment in Japan anymore?
Whats speakers are you rocking subscribed,this hobby is going to bankrupt me,i want one😂
Hi, thanks for watching and the Sub! The speakers used here were the Acoustic Energy Aegis Model 2, which isn't to be confused with the company's more common budget releases. These speakers are especially rare. Yep, this hobby is ridiculously addictive.. proceed with caution lol 😂
Haha it's to late for caution already addicted,I ve heard your acoustic speakers before I live the like of them,I have a pair of mordant shorts & a vintage pair of dovedale 3"s which I love,looking forward to following your channel great work
Haha! The Maxell tape “blown away” ad mixed with Maynard. Had that poster when I was a kid 😊
Perfect with an SAE Amp
I own one of these that was found buried in an old wooden shed. It looks complete & nothing visually broken on it, no speakers. It's been left to the elements, each metal piece I see, has rust, & the wood grain effect is curling off the plastic body. A full restoration is planned for it, & I need all the info I can get my hands on about it. Reading a comment, saying its a model from 1977..... that's nearly going on for 50 years old! I have to be very careful restoring it because plastic at that age, doesn't stand up well, & I'm a little scared that plastic pieces might just shatter, wish me luck with the restoration!🙏
What are the best book shelf speakers for this model? Thanks!
I like Mission 780 speakers
Какая его цена ? А среднем
Expect to pay less than £60
Dreadful music
Jit forgot that nobody gives a flying crap
Had A pair of these gems..early 90s. Still miss them..❤
Why did you part with them?
@@HornWorm8 I was relatively young at The time. And new to The Hi-Fi Game. But I learned loads from them..As to where my sonic preferences would be, going forward.
@@bjrntorearstein6347 Thank you. I'm in the new learning phase. Any advice?
Wasn´t there also a music video from the 80s/90s where they had the same setup with a girl instead. I`ve been searching for that video but couldn´t find it. If anyone knows what i mean I´d be glad for the help! Very cool commercial!
have you treated the woofer with mod podge or something? they look shiny
No treatment.
Overwhelming boomy bass. I like the little Hitachi though. Not Wharfedales finest
Agree completely
Sounds good, I think I'm going to get one of these. What's the music playing?
It sounds very homogeneous and absolutely natural, so that you immediately feel transported back to that time. Which speaker cable did you connect for the demonstration, please? Thank you!
Thank you for watching. I believe the speaker cables at the time were QED Silver Anniversary
How are they sounding to you buddy?
Much better than I'd expect from these old vintages. Clear and surprisingly powerful. From an era where they were mainly used in radiograms and valve amps, their frequency response was certainly good enough considering the single driver arrangement.
@@playbackvintagehifihunter9669 now that's very interesting, all I know about Goodmans is from the 80's and 90's , when they sold cheap and cheerful gear! . Thanks for the reply.
@@jimsregaturntableshifijukebox you must check out their stuff from the 60s and 70s, they were at the top of their game then and were one of the leading speaker manufacturers during those periods. Lots of big brands that are now confined to the low-Fi image actually had periods where they produced outstanding products but due to downturn in the world's economy they could not sustain that level or production.
@@playbackvintagehifihunter9669 I never knew that! Thanks for the information. 👍
Line? input is that like AUX?
Yes
Nice boombox i have the same with new gears 😊
Thank you for watching
Could you play the end/ middle of The Final Ascent? That will please you allot with the warm beautiful tones
Nice👍. A film set in Scotland too! Jim🏴🙂
Lol!
