Soviets used to make submarine hulls out of titanium.

Ok, but does your audio gear have rotons (metamaterials)?
Not yet. But get ready for the LS50 Meta Meta.
"A group of researchers is working on metamaterials that "grow" rotons. Metamaterials exhibit optical, acoustic, electrical, or magnetic properties that are not found in nature.…Thus, it might be possible in the future to better manipulate sound waves in air or in materials, for example, to bounce them back, redirect them, or create echoes. These materials have not been demonstrated experimentally yet; however, it should be possible to produce them by using technologies such as ultra-precise 3D laser printing." https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/06/210610135559.htm

Thanks, tomic60. I've been looking for a way to 'weld' my Ti cones instead of VHB dbl face film xfer tape. Now all I have to either procure or DIY a electron beam welder about the size of a soldering gun...('Dramady effect' *L*) Alternate application: On the Highway Of Others' Hell.

Sound is an experience, like color. If a speaker falls it will vibrate the air, but with no one there to hear it there will be no sound. Just as there is no color without an eye to see it there is no sound without an ear to hear it. https://youtu.be/5FELdBsixGg?t=110 |
