Roger Alan Modjeski (RAM) 1951 - 2019

It is with great sadness that I announce Roger A. Modjeski passed away peacefully in his home in San Pablo, CA after an 12 month battle with cancer. Roger started Music Reference in 1981 and later RAM Tubes, The Tube Audio Store, and The Berkeley HiFi School. For more than 38 years he tirelessly ran his business and designed some of the most unique and well received audio components in the industry. Right until the near end Roger was working, designing, and teaching until he physically was unable to continue.

The link below will take you my playground where I have posted my tribute to Roger (click ENTER after the page loads):

Fare thee well my friend.

I too am shocked and saddened to learn of Roger's passing. Terrible news.

Right until the near end Roger was working, designing, and teaching until he physically was unable to continue.

And on top of that he was even sharing his knowledge in posts at this very forum as recently as two months ago.

@clio09, my thanks as well for the beautifully written tribute.

And sincerest condolences to Roger's family and friends.

-- Al

Truly saddened to hear.

Condolences to family and friends.

I will continue to think of Roger, his legacy lives with me; his RM9 and RM10 amps anchor both my music rooms.
