Hi TREV THANKS FOR THE REPLY

THERES NO OUT PUT. THE POWER TRANSISTOR IS S/C AND
I THINK ITS A 2N3055 BUT I CANT READ THE NUMBERS
ON THE TRANSISTOR
OHM METER CHECKS ON THE TRANSISTORS IN THE POWER AMPS
SHOW NO FAULTS

THANKS. JIM

Radford amp

In the mid-1970's the Radford pre-amp and amp were as close as you could get to Audio Research Corp. in terms of sound and were a little less expensive.
There is a very active Radford group on Yahoo Groups, some speaker discussion, mostly rebuilding the tube units but a good amount of discussion and info on the s.s. amps.
