Big Ass Horns
« on: January 07, 2016, 08:02:56 PM »






Blasts propaganda, psy-ops and pop music over the border toward N Korea.

How loud do you think they can play?   How many watts of amp power?

Reminds me (somewhat) of Danley Sound Labs Matterhorn which I believe was developed for similar applications.

This green horn was the loudest thing ever heard in that Norwegian fiord. A 10 minute long piece was played every hour over three days.  It was a political action against the plans to start a large scale titan mining in the tiny village Vevring, on the west coast of Norway.

Beware of the horn!

8 watts of 300B tube power should do it.


Of course Kim Jung gets to sit in the "sweet spot"
