The notion that the RM-10 is an amp that can't play rock music is just plain silly.
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.

What a wonderful man. I had numerous encounters with him right about the time in 2008 that ARC was up for sale and we talked a lot about how he would run that company. I still can't get the sound of his electrostatic speakers that he demoed for me at his house out of my head. Some of the most enjoyable listening I've had. |
Roger was one of my best friends for 30 years. He was logical to the point of pain-in-the-ass and we spent hundreds of hours on the phone when we didn't live in the same town, talking about science and theories and unraveling the universe. He taught me so much, but if there's one lesson brightest in my mind it's to always ask, "How do you know?" And it's amazing how many answers fail that simplest of tests. "Let's find out," he would say. |
Roger talks about his design philosophy in this short video from about 8 years ago... https://youtu.be/x5Tr9lDT6fo |
