There made in Germany that is most likely at a German prison. I think the have a DB rating of like 128 db at 100 ft, pretty effective!

The company is Kockum Sonics, not "Tyfonics". Tyfonics is simply the name of the product series.
Say NO to excessive siren testing - overtesting desensitizes the public.
Say NO to voice siren systems - multiple origins = unintelligible audio.

Sorry. Yeah, I haven't reviewed their site lately.

Thanks for reminding me again.

This is not from a German prison. This picture is from Saline County in Arkansas who is replacing the town sirens because they are going "obsolete". this pic was from the Newspaper artical. I posted this a long time ago.

Kockums is a Swedish company, mainly known for ship horns. Another division of the company built most of the submarines for the Royal Swedish Navy. They are, however, owned by Thyssen-Krupp, which is German.
