Review
Subjectively the GH228 was credited with a sense of openness and clarity, a feature on which all listeners commented and were impressed with. It was effective in providing some perspective to music rather than shrouding it in a veil of colouration - Noel Keywood HFN 1978.


The last two pictures are from the 1980 Hi-Fi Year Book.
