What Brand of Speakers Are These

[bobsabuilder]

I was wondering if anyone knew what brand of speakers are these. They have no model number or manufacture. The brand has a G and a speaker in the middle

that is a goodmans speaker,how about some more pictures so we can see what model.

Yep, cleonjr "nailed" it: those are Goodmans, a British label that made some very fine-sounding hi-fi speakers. You may have an under-the-radar collectible treasure there. Treat it carefully, at least until you know what it is. If possible, pull the drivers and photograph the labels on the back of the magnets. They should tell the story.

I wonder if the woofer surrounds were made from PVC which does last a very long time.

Rubber surrounds, they are called "Minister's.

Woofers are different from the one's in the ad.

Badges are too I think the ones the OP has are older and possibly a different woofer could very well be a different type suround.Goodmans and wharfs Have a interesting history in British sound.

PVC [poly vinyl chloride] was used by Audax, Kef, Dalesford , Seas and a few others companies .
The weight of the heavy surround did cause a slight reduction in driver sensitivity compared to using a foam rubber surround.

IMHO opinion the drivers in the OP might be of higher performance than the ones used in the speaker for sale on Canuckaudiomart.

Thanks for all the info. I don't think these speakers will be replacing my Interface D's
