Talk:Megaphone
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
But how do they work? What are the acoustics involved? What's the optimal shape for a megaphone? — Kieff 00:45, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
I added a few words and a pointer to an article but your questions are good ones and there is much to add. Tre1234 00:12, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Music?
Perhaps it's worth mentioning that the bullhorn is used now and then by musical artists for the distortion it causes - for example, but Muse in their version of Feeling Good.
[edit] Loud Hailer
I removed the request for citation. A Google search on Loud Hailer returns 124000 pages, the first 10 of which are all megaphones. Maybe this is only a Britishism? An investigation into the term would be interesting to read but I don't think that there's any doubt as to its meaning. Tre1234 00:20, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
