    He said it was _more_ in the field of signals processing than acoustics, not that it had nothing to do with acoustics. And he was perfectly correct.

    MIT has an ocean acoustics program. That at least used to deal to a large extent with submarine detection, with lots of military research money available. MIT also has an acoustics and vibration lab. And Amar Bose, who may well have designed your loud speakers, taught acoustics at MIT until his retirement in 2000. I took his intro acoustics course many years ago. I think that he may still teach a course. He is still listed in the MIT directory.
