Yes Dave you're right they are a blast from the past. In the late eighties, a singer I was working with at the time, mainly at the weekends, was also going out as a solo midweek and wanted some lighter speakers than the HH dual concentrics that we were using. He went to Carlsbros with the intention of getting a pair of EVs and ended up coming out with the Ramsas instead which, to be honest, we thought compared quite favourably with the HHs and were definitely more "manageable". We parted company a few years later and he's been using them, as a solo ever since. Unfortunately, due to their age and not being used much over the last year, one of the speakers has literally "fell to pieces". He stll get's a good sound out of his rig when they're working right and given the small amount of work he's doing these days, he doesn't want to buy a new pair of speakers, so I said I'd enquire if anybody might have a pair or even a single unit that they're not using. It's a long shot but you never know.
