What are your thoughts on the "Edsels" of the audio history?

4 and 8 track tapes.. My father bought an Edsel.. Took it to Spain, sold it for more than he paid... We came home in a VW of all thing.. 1964. One or two in the whole state of Alabama in 1966. George Wallace's wife was Governor. 

Record players in cars and REVERB...

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

901s weren't a bomb, they were the bomb! A LOT of folks had those things. If you bought Sony True ribbon Toppers, built a couple of good horn loaded subs, and used a good parametric/graphic EQ, you had a pretty serious way to make sound.. Type I and II were real popular, they could really be abused, 200-300 watts no problem. GREAT sound from 100 hz to 12k or so.

There was the "hang one pair", "standmount one pair", and put the Ribbons on top of the lower ones, or hang them from the top ones..

Early 70s though good SS amps cost a LOT..
