Definitely from that part of the country, hopefully John (Robbo) can confirm if he sees this thread.

Never criticise another man until you've walked a mile in his shoes. Once you have, call him what you like, you're a mile away and you've got his shoes!

ILP amps!!! Didn't it stand for Ian L Potts? Am sure I met the guy at one time. Either that or my early exposure to Carlsberg all those years ago truly did cause some neural re-wiring. Didn't Terralec or some other southend based oufit sell the modules?

No don't think so, we used to buy them in from French France, nice little amp's for the money but not very powerful though.

Haahaa,that ILP website brings back memories of the dreaded puff of black smoke from the modules!....they even still look the same.I bought two around 1975,one lasted a week,the other a month. Utter rubbish.I replaced them with second hand HH ic100's.

That's odd Ian we used them for background music sites without problems, but it was very low volume stuff.

Yes ILP
are based in Ashford and still in business. Range of modules doesn’t seemed to
have changed that much in all these years. As for
Court I believe they are still in existence http://www.courtacoustics.net/ramjet.htm
but I’m not sure how active they are these days. Seem to remember Steven’s son
posted on here a while back. |

Wasn’t Aces a spin off (that’s not the right term but
hopefully some pedant will step in) from Custom Sound of Oswestry?
