  • What did you use to control the frequency of the speakers?

  • standard lab signal generator

  • Can this be done on a large scale. Say a pipe 5 feet in diameter, and a larger speaker. Physics is physics right? no matter the size?

  • as long as the diameter of the speaker matches the tube , is producing sufficiant amplitude to move the gas and you have sufficiant gas pressure to fill such a big tube than yes it should work

  • yes, mod an x box, because that would be a productive, educational and helpful use of time. maybe you should go back to yours, it might stop you talking to people. clearly not something you excel at. idiot.

  • some of the sound waves seemed higher then the visual light spectrum; the tips of the flames got so bright.

  • What would be the point of a larger diameter?

  • ur dumb ranklism1

  • thats true...but all you have to do is put a check valve on it and problem solved!!!
