737: Sculley and Heil

Paul Klipsch, Acoustic Weapons and Subharmonic Frequencies

The conversation turns to Paul Klipsch and his experimental work with massive horns for the US government during World War II. Heil describes a 40-foot horn designed as a potential weapon that could produce inaudible subharmonic frequencies to disorient people. He reflects on Klipsch's mentorship and the legacy of his prototypes stored in Hope, Arkansas.
