no - it has a dynamic driver. How does one take a step-up transformer and successfully modulate a flame to make sound without too much work and expense?

I was sort of kidding. but it sure is neat looking!

Hhhhmmmmmmmm...... engineering challenge! Is it in any way feasable to make a transducer from actual fire? One that would actually work for more than 30 seconds??

Hhhmmmm..

Yup - someone did it once with acetylene.

However, as a metalworker, that stuff scares the crap out of me.

Ever had hot melted glass drip on to your hand?
