Bargains on ebay?

Oh, and one other thing - the seller says the top Bass units have been replaced with units from a KEF Coda (iii he thinks) but the top ones look right to me (KEF B200) - I would personally replace the bottom 2 with another pair of B200s as they should have been originally.

I'm pretty sure RAMs always used Dalesford units, so it probably is the upper unit that has been changed if its a KEF now.

Frankly, I'm more concerned that they weigh "15kg" each. Really? That's not very much!

What's this then no one reads previous posts week?

I asked an eBay seller if they would post a pair of Pageant II's the other week, they replied "I'm sorry but they weigh 30kg each so postage isn't possible."

Nein: 22Kg

Yeah according to my owners manual they are 9.6kg each or 22.25kg per pair packed. Still wouldn't listen - I think it was just a poor excuse instead of saying "I cant be arsed to pack them."

A bit bigger than a Transit, but small nonetheless....



The work area of these vehicles was split into 3 different rooms.



Pye used to fit them out for the Beeb. I went in one once for a look around, on a wet day at a cricket match between Sussex & The West Indies at Hove.

Not enough room for Tannoy Lockwoods, but room enough for LS3/5As.

You're right - he was referring to a prototype that used B200s.

"The RAM3 used the same units as the RAM2, which was a scaled down version. This was designed before the RAM2, and derived from the first speaker I ever made, which used two KEF B200's for base units, and, whilst sounding good, had an awful impedance curve (two 8 ohm units in parallel) that some amps at the time didn't like."

RAM 3 use a pair of custom Dalesford units. What you been reading?
