I'm in the same boat. I had previously replaced the oem horn with one from autozone, and am just not happy with it. I'll be searching soon for a set of oem horns from an old cadillac from the 70s/80s. Those things had some serious power

I have omega train horns and a compressor.

So loud. So illegal. And FUN!

I have the PIAA superior bass horns. I like them. My JK came stock with dual horns but they didn't sound like dual horns. And I also wanted that deeper sound.
AFAIK the hella's are loud but not deep.
You'll find videos of both horns on youtube.

Just out of curiousity what are you guys blasting your train/boat/bass horns at???

It's been so many years since I used a horn in a vehicle, heck I don't even know if my horn even works.

Iv got a classic 6v klaxxon from a ford model A setup on a secondary button. Running 12v to it atm, its a loud screechy aroooooogah! I do plan on getting a converter to drop it to 6v soon so its the right tone

I dont always drive where others cant. but when I do, its in my Jeep. Stay muddy my friends

You need a Stebel Nautilus Tuning, or if you want deep go with the Nautilus Truck. They are compact and loud as hell!!

True!!!
Did the horn before I decided to limit my mods to useful stuff...

Rarely use mine but when I do I don't want to be hunting moose with a BB gun.
