Some magazine or other (no relation to AT&T-something or other) had a picture last year and an explanation of a true digital speaker invented at (would you believe it) Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc.! It was pre divestiture so I could use that name (gee it felt good). AS I recall it was a 4 bit job. There were 4 cones, one for each bit. They differed in size so that higher weighted bits caused more air to move. I think the mag reported we had no plans to market the thing. Dick Grantges hound!rfg
