Krikey! So, basically, no good ideas, ever.  And yet, household name. Anyone ever doubts the power of marketing, ladies and gentlemen, I give you: Bose!
I remember seeing this and hearing it at a New York Audio Show many decades ago.  Strange and puzzling.  
I would think the 2201 would have been unmarketable, which could be why it was never marketed. :)  Amar Bose was rather successful with the 901, though.  And certainly with the Acoustimas systems and the Wave-this and Quiet Comfort-that.  Marketing might get you a flash in the pan, but engineering and customer service can get you products that last over 45 years in the marketplace (901) and a multi-million dollar success story with legions of fans.
