"Wiggles in spacetime"? Timey-wimey wibbly wobbly?

That is amazing that they've caught these sounds. I would have thought two black holes colliding would suck all radiation, all wave forms, of any kind, right into themselves.

The two black holes colliding sounds an awful lot like Darth Vader. ;)

Space is silent so you would not hear it. A vacuum you see.
