I've commented before that this Maryland* company made a device that does what SDA does but at line level. It was used in a tape loop like an EQ. It also later showed up in some Radio Shack EQ's. I always felt it may have been at least a partial inspiration for SDA. Here are links to the patents. The designer Paul F Bruney also has 6 speaker patents. Here are links to them. I'm posting this because I think its interesting and germane.

* the first patent in 78 was done when he lived in New Orleans


SDA like circuit:
