Thank you very much for both responses in particular John

The were made in Norwich - the label tells me this - not my knowledge.
The dimensions are Height approx 13" Width 9" and depth 7" - yes I
wondered if they were LS3/5. Unfortunatly the speaker covers have gone
missing - so I am thinking about making some up - my knowledge of
speakers is not that extensive.

Thanks again - any other information would be really welcome

RAM loudspeakers if I recall correctly were quite well respected,
unfortunately going out of business in the mid 80's.
They were one of the few companies to obtain the required licence to produce
the BBC LS3/5a speaker the x/over being produced to close tolerance by
Falcon Acoustics. To obtain this licence was not easily achieved as we all
know and depended upon an almost absolute consistency between speaker units.
I cannot recall other loudspeakers in the RAM range if in fact there were
any, but working on the basis of a BBC approval I doubt that their other
products would be insignificant .

You may well have a pair of LS3/5a's - what are the dimensions of your
cabinets ?. Is the cover removable ?. Tygan or similar to todays baffle
covers.etc. etc.

Hope this is of some use to you, if not the whole answer to your question -
time fades ones memory.

I have recently been given a pair of RAM speakers - does anyone know
what the initials stand for as I have struggled to find any information
on the net. I know they are good speakers but want to find out more
info.

I am thinking of using them as part of my home recording studio - any
thoughts on this as before I picked them up I was heading off to a pair
of Yamaha monitors

The second area of help is the speakers themselves - there is no
obvious ID - I thought I was going to find a clear label saying Kef but
not so - there is a series of numbers which go on but the most obvious
ones are 0376 - If anyone could offer any guidance it would be much
appreciated.



Thanks for any help that I might receive Keith
