A friend reminded me of a demo. at the Naval Postgrad. School, wherein an ultrasonic speaker generated wave is voice modulated in order to produce a rather narrow bean Tannoy.  I presume it works by the ear’s being non-linear in amplitude response.  Any idea if it would work W/a hearing aid that has no gain above about 8k Hz? 


bc  whose hearing is about 60 dB down.
