RIP: Roger Alan Modjeski

[Joe P]

Roger A. Modjeski (68) 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.

Sad news. I Remember also a preamp design he made for Beveridge.

Very sorry to hear this. I used to own some of Rogers' RAM tubes, they were excellent. RIP .

So sad, I’ve spent time talking over the phone to him in the uk, the beveridge RM1 and RM2 pre amp was one of the best ever and his valve supply was second to none.

My sincere condolences to his family.

My friend was quite enamored of the RM9. Thanks Roger.
