Should you grab it at £35? Yes — against your database anchor, that sits below the £41 25th percentile and well under the £60 median, so this looks like a strong deal rather than a merely fair one.
That makes it a worthwhile punt because this is a classic late-analogue integrated amp with the equaliser onboard, which adds flexibility for system tuning and makes it more appealing than a plain amp. If it’s genuinely tested working and cosmetically decent, the combination of rarity and low entry price gives you useful upside; I’d only press for confirmation that all channels are clean and the controls are quiet, since age-related switch noise is the main thing to watch on gear like this.

Goodmans is a historic British audio brand founded in 1925 by Edward Stanley Newland in Wembley, London. The company emerged from Newland's early work reconditioning ex-army headphones, leveraging the premises of a business partner named Goodman. Over nearly a century, Goodmans established a deep heritage in British engineering, initially gaining prominence for its loudspeaker designs before expanding into a broader range of electronic equipment.
The brand is primarily known for its loudspeakers, which were considered leaders in design during the mid-20th century. Beyond speakers, Goodmans diversified into amplifiers, radio components, public address systems, and later in-car entertainment and digital television equipment. While they produced headphones and various consumer electronics, their core identity and market recognition remain firmly rooted in high-quality audio reproduction, particularly speakers and associated amplification.
In the modern market, Goodmans occupies a position as a respected vintage and heritage brand rather than a current high-end boutique. Its legacy appeals to collectors and enthusiasts who value classic British audio history, though the brand eventually transitioned its speaker OEM business to GLL while selling the consumer name to a low-cost electronics group. Today, it is viewed as a mid-tier historical name with significant nostalgic value, representing a bygone era of British audio innovation rather than a cutting-edge contemporary manufacturer.
