I stumbled across this snippet in an old Popular Science today. Anyone know the rest of the story?

"those sounds to which no definite pitch can be assigned are usually classified as noise"<br />harvey fletcher-1928
Is that a young Gene Cerwinzinsky?
It came from a 1940 issue. "Eastern manufacturer" seems to be the only other real clue.
I assume the 500lbs includes the iron stand? Wonder if the driver supported the baffle?

Hmmm... a 6" voice coil in 1940. Kinda renders the LH claim for the '48 D130 moot;
"The 4" flat wire coil was the single most innovative feature of this design. It was the first low frequency driver to incorporate a coil of this large diameter."

Hmmmm..... I've seen that beast before, somehwere. Must have been in some old speaker book I had. No idea what it is, tho.
I'm guessing any eastern mfr with such capabilities would have diverted production to wartime activities shortly after the March 1940 announcement. This whopper may never have seen much production beyond the protoype(s).
You can bet if one showed on eBay it would be "local pickup only"...![]()
