Radio Supply Company Great Western Arcade

[malfunction]

Do you remember R.S.C's in the Great Western Arcade, they sold guitar, stage and audio equipment with their own RSC logo. My question is what did RSC stand for, I know that this question has been raised on other forums but I'm not sure that anyone has the answered it?

I suppose the Royal Shakspeare Company has been mentioned before? It's the only thing I can think of for the initials RSC.

There is the Royal Society of Chemistry, but its not that. In Kellys it is listed as RSC (Manchester) Ltd.

Radio Compnewnt Specialists I think.

Had some connection with Linear and FAL amplifiers, which were often similar if not the same designs.

It was Radio Supply Company. They had other branches too, eg Coventry, I think.

Now that is sounding like it, I 'll google it and see.

After checking, there is a website supplying service diagrams for to the A7 amplifier and I know that there is an A10, so thanks that seems to clear that one up.

Pretty sure it was Radio Supply Company. I used it often for bits. Good service. Had my first reel-to-reel then cassette recorders. I think they had "Hi-Fi" separates and speakers before disappearing. RSC and Sherwoods (opposite?) were great shops.
