  Back in 1971 i seen one with my own eyes and heard it with my own
ears. We clamped a gas torch in a vise got a 4 foot flame going
placed 2 corbon rods about a foot apart and a glass rod below it
to add ions. with the hiss of the flame and the lack of any low
end due to the short flame it sounded like crap.
 we figgured we needed an oil well fire to get the low end of
a cheap 15 inch speaker.
 we drove the rods with 100 watt amp.
