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):

Another one of the audio greats has gone to the listening room in the sky.  Rest In Peace Roger, the high end will not be the same.

Sad to hear. With every passing of the old guard, the circle gets smaller but hopefully, their achievements are not forgotten, but remembered and passed on to future generations.

All the best,
Nonoise
