MOST FAMOUS AMP in Rock History! 300 Watts, McIntosh, Grateful Dead & The Wall of Sound

The Wall of Sound was an enormous public address system designed specifically for the Grateful Dead’s live performances in 1974. It was the creation of audio engineer Owsley “Bear“ Stanley. The Wall of Sound fulfilled Owsley’s desire for a distortion-free sound system that could also serve as its own monitoring system. The Wall of Sound was the largest concert sound system built at that time. Want the best in Home Audio & HiFi? Visit our store at We feature some of our orders in our daily short videos!
