However, I have seen some videos of them and must say they have a GREAT sound.
More like an STH on top of an STL! Which... is pretty much what it sounds like, too. Because that's basically what it is... :)

Did they all come with controls? I might be willing to buy one when I finished with my current 3T22A.

They came with controls, but no radio/timer. I put a link to the flikr set with more pictures

Why didn't you get that STL-10 that's in the background?

Ssssssshhhhhhhhhh you'll wake the beast. A certain someone may be making a second haul in the near future, because he ran out of room on his trailer.

Actually, not even close. The STH/L sirens have larger rotors than the 2T22, and a 7/12 sounds nothing like a 10/12. The old catalog photos showed the 2T22 with a 7/12 setup, but these were never actually built.

STH-10 has a 22 inch rotor
STL-10 has a 24 inch rotor
xt22 has two 14 inch rotors.

Fairly big size difference.

I see a Thunderbolt and a STL-10 in the background. The Bolt is to the left of the STL. You can see the top of the horn.
