Unbeatable I say. They even claim the K5LA is 150 db when it's really 144.

A lot of pieces are posted at extremely high prices. Very few actually sell for that much.

All the listings with the white backgrounds and black powder coat seem to be from hornblasters. If it comes from Florida, it's 99% from Hornblasters.

Hornblasters seems to be the place where the folk that want to scare seem to go. To this group its the dBs not the tone or the history.

Yeah, The hornblasters knockoff K5 is called the "King 5 train horn." It sounds awful and they claim its just as loud as a K5, so a lot of people are buying that now.
