An ear-death experience. Wonder if any leading audiophile engineers participated in its creation. I kinda hoped a speaker may be the last thing I hear, but not this one.

The trolls bring up relative questions as do American citizens deserve having experimental weapons used as crowd control. 

My post was more specific in that did any known audiophile engineer contribute to its creation. Though I would like to post a more general question.

Does anyone find this sad or troubling that a speaker can be a weapon? (beyond brightness, dullness,  or ugliness?)

This is somehow reminding me of the original purpose of what finally became the Klipsch La Scala. It was a bandstand speaker created for broadcasting  political speeches to a crowd as when Rockeller was campaigning in Arkansas.

By the way, we  are not trolling. We are elving humorousness.

 

 

We seem to accept noise pollution as routine. From omnipresent aircraft to the perpetual insanity of leafblowers and back-up beepers, the cacophony is relentless. I've often read social media retorts where unsavory folks use yard machines to intentionally annoy neighbors. 

Does anyone find this sad or troubling that a speaker can be a weapon?

Kate Bush has a wonderful song called 'Experiment IV', which is about a secret military experiment to build a weapon that would create a sound that could kill someone. Great song and great video to go with it.
