Loud Speaker For Auditory Perspective By Thuras
The Fletcher system was the father of the Shearer sound system and all those to come. I've posted about this before but now I wonder if this system survived?

It never ceases to amaze me.
The New York Times reported that "Sound Waves 'Rock' Carnegie Hall As

and echoed through venerable Carnegie Hall last night as a specially
invited audience listened, spellbound, and at times not a little
terrified."
