As I was reading the thread on Bose 901 speakers I was reminded of an
ELECTRO VOICE system of the mid-late sixties. It was a single cabinet unit
about 8' long by about 3' high and had a convex curved front panel with
ports (slots?) at each end near the mid and high drivers. The curved panel
looked about 5½ feet wide. The model name was 'Patrician' possibly with a
suffix number. It had a 30" woofer. I used to have an old Audio magazine
from the era, and there was a write-up on it, along with a photo. I've
worn Google out looking
for info, but no joy on this particular 'Patrician'. Please... somebody
tell me I haven't lost my marbles and at least say "yeah, I seem to recall
something like that". Mebbe I'll sleep better hearing at least that much!
Would you believe JBL Paragon? :-)

But Bose makes a 1/25th-scale plastic scale model that looks
vaguely reminiscent. You may have seen it in infomercials. Looks
like they get roughly the same $$$ for it as JBL did back in the day.

I don't care what Paul Harvey says, that thing sounds like crap.
