Has anyone seen the Futureweapons show episode where they show the speaker that has a focussed accoustic 'beam'?

The inventor made a big deal about the fidelity of the sound it reproduces - even though it's designed as a weapon designed to go as loud as 180dB.

My first thought when I saw the episode was that it would be very cool to use the speakers for headphones. Kind of like a new K1000 head speakers.

Anyone seen this or know any more about the potential for headphone use?

I still find the gay-bomb much more interesting.



And why would that be...

For those of us who protect their hearing, this is a truly awful weapon. I understand that they are just as loud at a distance, rather like a sonic laser. I'd just as soon get nuked. Mess with my hearing, I kill you...

Just cigars. Sometimes a cigar is just that.

if i was there getting my eardrums busted it would be different
