If you know the name "Goodmans" from years ago, as a manufacturer of
quality loudspeakers, don't make the mistake of thinking that this comes
from the same stable, and is worth doing. I see a great deal of Goodmans
gear in my day to day repair life, and almost without exception, it is
very cheap Chinese or Korean stuff, badged with that name. For the most
part, spares or service info and assistance for these items, is at best
very hard to come by, and at worst, non-existent.

It's the same in the US with Singer, RCA, GE and many other brands. Even
some 'live' brand names are rented out to crap outfits.
