The world's most powerful music speakers were created by Bose. The most amazing thing is that this company was not a world famous brand, before this product the company remained in the shadows. Such speakers were designed to perform a special task - scoring of large open areas like stadiums. The customer of such an unusual device was Sir Paul McCartney, who needed powerful acoustics in order to organize the most popular festival in honor of the Beatles.
If you add up the power of all acoustics and amplifiers, it turns out that it had the following parameters: power 4900 watts and the maximum volume is 139/145 decibels.
It should be noted that the development company stated that 4900 watts is not the maximum power of the speakers, they could even reach 11000 watts, but this is already too huge a figure. According to the press and the media, at least 70 people suffered from too loud sound at this festival. Most of the victims are people who were near the speakers. Within a week after the festival, all of these people had headaches and tinnitus. This unpleasant behavior of the nervous system was caused by a powerful sonic boom.
Despite everything, all these people again arrived at the next event within a month. This event was attended by Sir Paul McCartney himself. The event also exhibited this powerful speaker system. In fact, there is information that there are more powerful speakers. The fact is that they were manufactured by an illegal Japanese company, and their power can reach even 7800 watts. Nevertheless, the most powerful sound system in the world is considered just Bose's Ultra-Slim ARRAY, because the Japanese product was not registered and put into production by legal means.
At the Sir Paul McCartney Festival, a large stage was set up where the installation was in the form of huge Bose speakers. The speakers consisted of three long columns in the center of the podium, as well as two canopies above the stage. There were also two bundles of small columns around the edges of the stage. That's not all - right under the bundles, two large amplifiers were put up. It is not known how those people who happened to be right on stage felt after the performance.
Bose itself liked its invention so much that in 2011 a new improved version of this speaker system was announced. According to the developers, the new speakers have improved the frequency range, as well as the harmonic coefficient. This time, the company did not increase the power of the speakers. Firstly, higher power is unlikely to be used somewhere. Current rates are already excessively high. Secondly, the company is worried about various possible injuries and injuries in people when listening to music through this system.
