We consider a system of coupled classical harmonic oscillators with sp
atially fluctuating nearest-neighbor force constants on a simple cubic
lattice. The model is solved both by numerical diagonalization and by
applying the single-bond coherent potential approximation. The result
s for the density of states g(omega) an in excellent agreement with ea
ch other. if the system is near the borderline of stability a low-freq
uency peak appears in the quantity g(omega)/omega(2) as a precursor of
the instability. We argue that this peak is the analogon of the ''bos
on peak,'' observed in structural glasses and other disordered solids.
By means of the level distance statistics we show that the peak is no
t associated with localized states.
