Radford Preamp
Greeting,
I just got my hand on a old Radford SC-242 Preamp. The lady who gave it to me didn't really take care of it so most of the lettering on the face plate is erased. I hook it to my Quad 303 amp and after trial and error I manage to find what button control what. So I listen to some CD and LP and was simply amazed with the sound. This preamp was design between 30 and 40 years ago. I open it up and it is build like a tank. I would like to restore it so I need schematic and/or picture of it(So I can redo the lettering of the face plate). So does anyone have any info on this Radford SC-242 Preamp? Thanks! Jocelyn |

Jocelyn I have a small photo of the SC-22, but I don't have any info on the SC-242 Control Unit, so have no idea how similar they are. I see, however, that you can buy a High-Fidelity Magazine review of the SC-242 from 1974 for $5.00 from http://www.roger-russell.com/magrevhf.htm Hope this helps S. |

Thank you for the info about High-Fidelity Magazine. A nice fellow already send me several picture of the SC-24 (according to someone from Radford Group it is similar to the SC-242). Now I just have to buy quality RCA connectors to replace the original one (they are corroded) and redo the lettering. Again, Thanks Jocelyn Major Son of Leo Major DCM & Bar |
