So damn cool. I hope I never see one for sale, because at my age I should be selling stuff, not buying. :icon_biggrin:

Yep, same here, but I still want 1 too.  :laugh:

They made 3 models, all SS;

RA-200, 200w, 3 rotating speakers, 4 x 12" stationary speakers.

RA-100, 100w, 2 rotating speakers, 2 x 12" stationary speakers.

RA-50, 50w, 1 rotating speaker, 1 x 12" stationary speaker.

They say that the RA-50 has a sound port on each side of the cab for the rotary speaker, and has better dispersion because of that. The other 2 have the sound port in the front of the cab.

I read that the RA-200 weighs 200+ lbs!  :help:

I'd like to get my hands on the RA-50.   :icon_biggrin:
