Sound Pure's Take

The Heritage Audio RAM System 2000 brings high-end console-style monitoring to desktop production setups. Combining vintage RAF-inspired aesthetics—complete with Heritage’s iconic red rotary knob—with flexible modern routing capabilities, the RAM 2000 functions as the ultimate central control hub for hybrid tracking and mixing environments.

At the core of the RAM 2000 is a 64-step relay-ladder attenuation system that provides sub-0.1dB stereo tracking accuracy across all volume levels. Unlike standard potentiometer-based volume knobs that introduce phase shifts or L/R level drift at low volumes, this unit ensures your stereo imaging stays rock-solid regardless of playback level. Combined with high-headroom analog signal paths, built-in audiophile-grade Bluetooth receiver (supporting aptX, AAC, and SBC), and comprehensive console talkback functions, it delivers seamless workflow efficiency without degrading your source signal.

 R.A.M. SYSTEMS OVERVIEW

Standing for Reference Audio Monitoring systems, this whole new line is the result of more than 2 years of intensive, full time R&D at the Heritage Audio Headquarters.

With audiophile grade sound quality in mind and sets of features custom tailored for studios of all kinds, sizes and budgets, the R.A.M. systems share the same state of the art technology and core analog audio path, from the smallest brother, the RAM System 500, to the full featured, 5.1 ready, RAM System 5000.

All 3 products employ relay switching all the way through as their working principle, including the 64 step relay ladder attenuator system employed for the master level, only previously found in the mega expensive units.

Also present is the acclaimed HA Bluetooth connectivity for mobile devices. A classic look, with massive red knob for easily dialing of the 64 steps of attenuation, rounds the pack.

The RAM Systems finally makes mastering grade monitoring affordable.
