re-uploaded this video from a user deleting the video months ago and never uploaded again.
only modification i did was i added a little slideshow of the Victory siren, all from google images.
I do not own any copyright images in this video
you will have a best shot at actually hearing this thing in either car shows, or civil defense museums. i dont know if any private collector owns one yet
SOME INFO: gas powered 331 Hemi V8 180HP, (134.2KW) back then, cost only $5000, 2006 that amount is around $35000, effect range on this siren is over 4 miles in radius,(other siren's effect range is on average 1.5 miles radius, sometimes 2 miles if your lucky) it can be heard up to 30 miles radius on a perfect day.(60 miles in diameter)
the entire chassis, engine and siren head rotates, 1 /1/2 rpm with the help of a turntable, weighs 3 tons, 138dB at 100 feet (178dB@ 1 foot), loudest siren ever created! manufactured in 1952-1957 by Chrysler.
this has a built in 3-stage centrifugal compressor, sending over 2,610 cubic feet of air a minute at 7psi(thunderbolt is 250CFM@6.5psi) through the chopper. very surprising, the chopper is 22.5 inch diameter, surprising eh? the air leaving the siren has the velocity of 400MPH!!! thats fast!!
more info on their website

The siren also does a 10 sec quarter mile
Lol
Lol that’s great
Lmao
It's got a Hemi
180 hp 331 Hemi. It ain’t going anywhere fast😂
only the Americans would think of powering a siren with a V8
Thee Adjudicator Wait!
I coulda' had a V-8?
what about a W16?
Max Max!
well Jeramy Clarkson powered a rocking chair and a blender with a V8

that is the scariest air raid siren ive ever heard
This siren has an indescribable wailing sound to it.

CHAIN Oh no. The website must have gone down.
RampageExtreme 5820K The website must have gone down
I grew up in the 50s in St. Louis MO and these things meant only two things, Tornado is a-coming or the Ruskies done did the unthinkable. This sound still gives me chills thanks for the memories.
Are the rusky the Russians
@@trep.xgh2.0 Yes.
One remains in Kansas City!
@@MasenMonster Like it runs as a tornado siren or some museum uses it?
@@thecaynuck4694 Neither, its inactive sadly. :(
I lived in Neah Bay years ago.
Every night, 10 PM, we had a 45 second serenade from an old Chrysler.
It was the Curfew Siren.
"It's 10 o' clock. Do you know where your children are?"
LGTheOneFreeMan it's 10 o'clock, do you know where your guns are?
Greg Gallacci oh
Curfew? For the “freedom loving” Americans? This is a joke don’t bully me
@@frostyvr9805 www.mariowiki.com/bully
I really hope I never hear this.
I was just thinking the same thing, Nick
inclined to agree
very unlikely you will. there were under 100 of these made and i believe only 2 are still used once a month as a test.
I mean just the tone of it in general
Chris Martin They're still in active service??
This isn't so much "duck and cover" but "hey guys just so you know, you're screwed, kthxbai"
NeglectedField I'd be all like "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK!"
loollolollololllollloo9ll
accurate
I'd be like ok kids time to take your cyanide pills.
And that chilling " I can't look" feeling that you get as a siren winds down
this sounds like the type of siren that screams "aliens, zombies, overpriced corndogs, the world is officially fucked and there is nothing anyone can do about it, enjoy the apocalypse"
+Justin Noker and after that siren, we can hear elevator music while everyone is either got slaughtered or riot everywhere
+Zefanya Lt Cheers dude, your comment is brilliant!
Well, you damn sure wouldn't have no problem knowing when there is a Tornado coming.
This is the best comment I've ever seen. Thank you.
Overpriced corndogs XD
This is a nightmare...
The Mighty Wolf was it the blitz
Krazy0ManMan its not sick and disgusting. its horrifying and cruel
Krazy0ManMan you can hate me for saying this, but sometimes war is necessary
Funny though that one tends to remember nightmares much more than nice dreams (no, not Cheech & Chong type of nice dreams)
@Krazy0ManMan "War, what is it good for? Everything!" -Soldier, TF2
They need to make modern equivalents to these things. Current sirens are just too weaksauce compared to this thing.
***** It just sounded creepy, I like it. The best sirens are ones that are loud and make you say "WTH".
Unbearable Pain The ACA P-50.
+Unbearable Pain jumbo Jet engine powered siren?
+David Vermillion That would probably blow windows out for like, 37 miles.
Federal Signal Thunderbolt :)
It was used in the cold war as i know - take your time to listen to that insane mechanical siren from a good video for it - just when it goes off - it's like a roar of destruction X)
Write this on youtube search ( 12/21/2011 Thunderbolt 1000T Alert & Attack )
when u step on a lego
Ha
True :3
WW3 is now on your foot
Legos V foot fighters
This made my day 🤣😂
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooOOOOOOOOOO"
Holy shit. These American sirens honetly let out the most deafening wails I've heard in a looong time
Better than those shitty ATI... things.
Not modern ones, they are weak as fuck, I literally can sleep through them at full power and I live roughly 2.5-3 blocks from one
@@Bacony_Cakes ATI. A Terrible Invention.
@@Bacony_Cakes yeah kan
@@brandonburkest6229 lol
My mom grew up in Detroit during the 1950s when these were in the city as the official siren. Detroit and chicago was the major manufacturing hub for the military, and thus was one of the first targets the Soviet government would hit with ICBMs.
She would always tell me how scary it was, having to go into the basement of her school to practice the air raid drill. When I found this I told her about it, and being curious she asked me to show her. We played this on our home theater, and it scared the living hell out of her. "Yep. That's the one." She told me. I was worried that I gave her a panic attack.
Then my aunt came over and my mom had me play it for her to scare the crap out of her. She laughed when my aunt got scared.
Thank you for preserving the haunting sound of the past.
I want one. I have no idea what I'd do with it but I want one.
HAHA! Agreed indeed!
alarm clock
If I had one I would blow that noise to the people I hate and blast that noise into their house at 4:00 in the morning
+Gamers inc. I wouldn't even have to blast it into their house, just the same county and it'd wake them up.
There you go
Everyone notive most are powered by the Chrysler 392 C.I.D.Hemi V-8 engine?
As a person who grew up during the cold war, these siren tests were quite chilling, children were fully aware they signaled a nuclear attack. The sound of this siren brought back memroies of ducking under my deask in school not knowing if I would ever get back up again. Unlike today, there was no mass alert to the testing, it occured the first Wednesday of each month. Accidental activations happened from time to time and would really set you teeth on edge. So the prevailing wisdom dictated if you hear them, take cover. The video brought all the unease and apprehinsion back as if yesterday. Odd that, after all these years of not hearing one.
Always has gave me a nice goose-bump Rush....I like it!! hahaha
Well now we have Kim Jong un so these sirens are gonna probably be testing a lot
331 hemi 1951
Oh yes! You DID understand. The reason you continued to crawl under you desk for the drill, was if you did not, the teacher or principal would smack you with a ruler! None the less, during the cold war, when you lived in a city with a major air force base on one side of town, and missile launch facilities on the other side of town, (both ICBM and defensive missiles,) not to mention all the television shows and movies on the topic, you knew that if the big button was pushed, and when the sirens went off for real, it was going to be the end of life as we knew it. You understood it, but did not dwell on it. Life went on. I guess you just had to be there...
Not a 392 Hemi... many were 331 or 354 Industrial engines, never heard of one with a 392.
This siren reminds me of my friend, loud as shit
Lol
+A Flying Space Kangaroo WIns the internet
wtf at least your friend wasn't that loud, or you'd die lol
Ah yes taco bell, loud shit.
I’m like your friend then
Normal siren: Tornado's coming! Seek shelter now!
This siren: *THEY ARE HERE FOR YOUR SOULS*
I remember hearing this thing back in the early 60's every first Friday of the month. It was on a steel tower in the parking lot of the police department. It always tripped me out. Kinda sounded like a big flying saucer or something.
To me that is the sweetest sounding siren ever, let alone the loudest. It could be heard 5 miles away when wrapped up full RPM. The Hemi engine was needed due to the torque of winding up those huge siren blades in that housing. Thus a high torque engine to place its full power to the blades to achieve its volume and full potential. I remember the Cuban Missile crisis very well. While we tried to live normal lives, we were on edge thinking that Cuba could or would launch missiles at us and start WWIII. Sirens like these were specific to making a lot of noise and alerting hundreds of thousands of people at the same time. Great video by the way. Thank you for having it on You Tube. It is a full testament to days gone by. But, maybe the way things are going, they may make them again.
Not 5 miles, 25 to 30. These beasts were LOUD
Loud doesn't even BEGIN to describe the decibel output of these things.
Oh how relevant this comment is 5 years later
25 miles.
25
MILES
Way more than 5 miles. I can easily hear Whelens that far yet not even a P-50 carries 5 miles
Quite an alarm. Does it come with a snooze button?
Ask Chuck Norris.
Yeah. It's called a nuke. Except if you use it the chances of waking up again are slim to none...so let's use it :D
LMFAO.
LOL!!!
Loud enough to wake the dead. Set it off in a cemetery and find out.
rlstz son im done
It can be heard up to 25 miles away.
rlstz that would be highly disrespectful
Are you trying to make the apocalypse?
LMAOOOOOO 😅😂 so disrespectful but so funny at the same timeeeeee
Take it from a veteran of 43 years, it sends chills down my spine.
I'm old enough to have experienced the drills in school in the 1960's and "This is a TEST" broadcasts on PBS.
Such was life in the Cold War.
Imagine walking at night in the countryside whether that be a large field or forest and hearing this.
Its amazing how the sound of an air raid siren can be fascinating and horrifying at the same time.
yes, most horrendous, obnoxious, terrifying, loud, abominable… yet fascinating, unique and dare I say, hauntingly beautiful sound. Amazing how the devices we use to warn of disaster and/or war and the consequences of our society falling apart, can, in moments like this, bring us together.
GREAT recording. It is rare to hear a restored Chrysler siren revved to full power. Amazing how the sound of the engine, running loudly through open pipes is easily drowned out by the siren itself.
imagine using this as an alarmclock MUAHAHAHAHA
You wouldn't have any working ears.
Ben Miller yup
Spongbob Squarepants!
Bob Sagget OH BOB SAGET!
-Tourettes Guy
2nd person to do that. How dare you.
When you hear this there will be no point in running. Resistance will be futile :)
SouthCalifas619 especially if im attacking
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA lol
well, I guess that defeats the whole purpose of a siren doesn't it
Someday our dreams will come true
So listen along to the musical doodle
After watching I take my headphones off and I can still hear the siren......... Uhh ohh
ikr
boom
tornado, get in your basement and kiss your ass goodbye
+Artyom Zaytsev this ain't a tornado siren. Air raid siren.
AIR RAID Get to your basement\air raid shelter and kiss your little ass goodbye
My asshole neighbors would drop dead if I fired that up in my drive way.
I have a huge Electro Voice horn speaker with a integral tweeter that I snurfed on a few years ago from work, and a 200 watt solid state amp that can be bridged to 400 watts. I have been giving serious consideration of putting that speaker on my
Ham Radio antenna tower and just letting 'er rip. In the event of an emergency, of course. ;)
palt habbaboof LOL watch them spaz out xD
Carter: Get in a shelter
Chrysler: We'll Hope you had a good life.
I had hoped never to hear that sound again. Still brings a shiver down my spine and brings back the deep dread I remember feeling when it went off in the 1980's. We weren't told that it was a test back then, not like you did here, but the those same feelings live on. God help us all if it's ever used for real. Thanks for sharing.
Correction: this was manufactured between 1952-1957.
The website in the description says all about it, when and where they used the siren.
Surprisingly the website is still online
Rare recording!! Most of those sirens on tour, the owners fear to rev them to full power because of the tremendous decibel output. Hearing this with the echoes give be total goosebumps!!! Best recording I ever heard of one of these!! My friend Harry was among the first to fully restore one of these and I have operated it myself, out in the country where we could also rev it to full power. Awesome, amazing recording!!!
That siren is absolutely haunting to me. I grew up during the 1970s and 1980s and always knew we were one step away from nuclear war. Thank God we've never had to hear a siren like that as a warning to the end of the world.
that would make one hell of a tornado siren
Not taking shelter ... and hopefully 8
@DJ POEHLER how can a 8 year old make a political insult
don hartman yeah except for it needs somebody to start it up
Joanne Stealey these were wired up to a single control center, kinda like the modern tornado sirens today.
So all you need to do is wire up the ignition to the signal wire for your average tornado siren and your good to go.
Tuba Player ohk
These sirens were obviously based off Chuck Norris' headphones...
Did Japan hear this?
+KCSShadowRace623 this siren was manufactured at the Chrysler Engine Plant in Trenton, Michigan to be exact
+taledarkside damnn
LIKE THE JOKE OR WHATEVER
+Nick Silcox Now That I Know That I'm Proud to live in the State Of Michigan
+I Like Cars same bruh
This siren's wail is spine-chilling.
What if we put that on a dodge fire truck
it would be VERY NOISY
John Carrillo, the fire would run away.
The firefighters would be deafened.
Sarge_m16 That made my day xDD
Heheheheh
Growing up in Los Angeles in the ‘60’s we would hear these being tested fairly regularly. No matter which way you turned your head you would hear a siren at a different pitch. The echos were ominous. When I got older and understood what they were (duck and cover until age 8 was all we knew), I remember a teacher telling us that if we ever heard them go off at a non-scheduled time, we had less than 10 minutes left to live. Some kids laughed. Some got it. It’s a sound you never forget.
Now those same sirens are rusting away 😞
Heard this is the loudest siren in the world, can be heard from 22 miles away!
I grew up with one of these 8 miles away. It's not so much the reverb and echo, and you got that nailed, but its the shear volume, acoustic energy. Here in the south with the humidity the Chrysler horn would make it rain just in front of the horn, literally the sound pressure would squeeze rain out of the air in front of the horn.
The other thing is that the mass of the rotating mass of the horn pluss the rotating mass of the entire thing ment that the time it took to rev up or down was slower much slower than what you emulated.
Still, the images you show are cool.
As a acoustic engineer and mopar fan this was great.
Thanks.
The wind up to this amazing siren sounds like the start-up of an old classic car. Really cool video!
If so, I would imagine a Hot-Rod making that sound.
It's because it's powered by a Chrysler Big Block V8.
Looked in the Guenis Book Of World Records and this was awarded AGAIN as the loudest siren. I LOVE IT!!!
My dad used to install and test them at Detroit fire stations in the 50's
My small home town tornado siren sounded the exact same, I still get chills hearing this.
Completely different sound from the original super loud one, and one of the toys. The "long distance" echos really are what makes this and all sirens so awesome.
im willing to bet this sound will go down in the history books as one of the most haunting/terrifying sounds of the 20th century
I agree wit ya, I've listen to this hundreds of times and every time it sends shivers down my spine every time! It's unique and amazing at the same time!!
listen, you just made my day a ton better, thank you.
eerie as fuck... would not wanna wake up to that thing
Imagine hearings that in Tornado alley.
This sound clip recorded from 5 miles away is even more eerie: web.archive.org/web/20160620235252/victorysiren.com/x/wav/HB122803D.wav
Chris Martin your glad u didn't
Chris Martin if I woke up to this, my I'd probably poop and pee my pants
Green And Orange Line Productions It wasn't even scary or eerie, it was nothing but quit, and these sirens have a 2.1 mile radius, which from five miles away, probably came from two sirens instead of one.
I need this for when my neighbors dog is being annoying
Good gravy! What a sound! I would definitely be running for cover if I heard this~to protect my eardrums and my backside. So blood~curdling. And incredibly haunting.
I miss this siren that went off on at 12:00 pm. Where i was raised as a kid on the west coast. It is no longer there. They took it down a long time ago. This brings back some memories from back then.
THIS VID IS THE SOUND OF THE DEAD SPIRIT OF THE SIREN
I don't understand how I always end up on videos of sirens...
But I do know that this is the creepiest sounding one yet.
Awesome.
Every time i hear this siren, this goes through my mind: It's the end of the world.
Clare The Xenomorph When I hear it it's like "FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKK-" He ded!
lol
Clare The Xenomorph When i hear it. it makes me feel like there is a shit ton of ghosts running towards me...
GamerhackTV More like "Shi..." He's dead Jim!
xLDKx NewYorker Haha! Yea, actually that is right. :D
gave me chills..
when a old video gets recommended to you ya know that its good
In cold war, hearing this go off would be the scariest thing ever
Scary! But the best sounding siren I`ve heard, so far. Also I really like those impressive mighty red sirens, the loudest sirens ever made!
These things have an amazing history. Plus can firkin haunt you in your dreams if you hear it at full power w/ the echo.
I have found the answer to my neighbors that keep me up when I'm trying to sleep. Now I just gotta back the trailer up to their window and set my alarm for 3am.
Thank you so very very much.
omg with headphones this sounds amazing! Great quality. love the start up.
sounds like a dying whale. The Carter air raid siren on the other hand, thats a different story.
No kidding about the Gents air raid sirens! I scared the shit out of everyone in a 1/2 to maybe 3/4 of a mile radius of my house on New Years Eve at midnight. I played a 1 minute "Attack" signal on the huge speakers I have- I literally have to plug my ears 'cause it's so loud. No joke.
Correct
I take practicality over sound. With the carter, Wyoming, MN needs 2 of them, with these, it can be 24 miles away, and you still hear it
In all honesty the carter sounds good as hell and we have one on a water tower
I like the Carter/Gents sirens. They are very effective and produce a chilling sound.
They both make you say "oh shiiiiit"
Sounds like a haunt from HELL! I'd be bookin' for shelter at hearing this ghostly moan!
Does it peak out at G or G# (G4 on the keyboard)? I believe that is the standard pitch for an air raid/alert siren.
This sound usually doesn't bother me but hearing that echo sure did give me a bit of a chill!
imagine having this as an alarm clock
Would love how you'd feel upon hearing 138 dB wails while you're sleeping next to it :)
It would crush your bedside table.
Say goodbye to your hearing
stay out of my house.
One of the scariest sounds ever
How does this thing work? Like is there two turbines or choppers that are spinning in opposite directions? Its gotta be something more complicating than just an ordinary siren with one turbine and one stationary chopper ( like a p-50 or sd-10 to name a few)
Best Mopar commercial ever!! .. "HEY, HAS THAT THING GOT A HEMI??" .. "Oh, Did you mean the air siren on my trailer... Yeah, that's got a HEMI too... "
Very eerie and haunting sound. Takes me back to the days of "When you see the flash, duck, and cover"
Just like what Bert the Turtle does
When I was a teenager I would play this on full blast on my stereo when my family started screaming
This sound has to be somewhere embedded in our brains. Like there has to be a primal fear of this for us to get chills just by listening to it on a video. There has to be something there
I like the echo. Very much reminds me of today's tornado siren. Nice job!
War....War never changes
*War has changed.*
*It's no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles, fought by mercenaries and machines.*
*War--and it's consumption of life--has become a well-oiled machine.*
*War has changed.*
*ID-tagged soldiers carry ID-tagged weapons, use ID-tagged gear. Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities.*
*Genetic control, information control, emotion control, battlefield control…everything is monitored and kept under control.*
*War…has changed.*
*The age of deterrence has become the age of control, all in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction, and he who controls the battlefield, controls history.*
*War…has changed.*
*When the battlefield is under total control, war becomes routine.*
I feel like this is the begging of a 90's song XD
Ive seen that this air raid siren had a throttle for it does that mean someone had to operate all of them? and rotated it? or is the throttle an addition to allow shows of how it worked?
The yellow one mounted on a tower at appr. 2:12, is that the one in the Woodland Pk area of N Seattle off of Phinney Ave N?
I want one of these, good to use when you hear those shitty prayer calls.
Amen brother!
im soooo horny
Useful, in fact, 'cause when they start praying, bombs start exploding.
ELECTRICCLOCK. I Totally agree
They should keep that up...
I like the sound... I-I like the sound...💀
Killcard707 personally it's somewhat soothing. I get what you mean
I have an animal that is trained to alert me in case I do not respond to a tornado siren and these siren videos are absolutely driving him nuts.
Hearing this full blast just vibrates the hell outta my insides! Scariest sound ever!!
Whats next, a siren powered by a V10?
sounds like a ghost
I have never been in a warzone or any real danger, but this thing puts me so much on edge I almost panicked. Goosebumps.
You gotta admit this is Hauntingly Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!! Gives ya chills listening to it !!!!
Haunting noise, omg!
Much more scarring that a carter. 😦😦😦😦😦😦
How much and where can I get one?
large museums of automotive or civil defense and a few car shows will have one, and how much? over 50grand, easily if it is for sale
+The Audio Master Of Audio aint nothin like owning a classic though
The loudest siren!
Callum C this would be very for a tornado warning
I also want to have one...where can i buy it?
Cool to see it still operates and nice restoration by the way. But I would almost bet your neighbors just love the hell out of you!😆
I remember when I was a kid in Hawthorne CA. The siren was located about 1&1/2 miles from my home, but could be heard for miles. Every Friday morning at 10 am, during the height of the cold war.
How loud was it from that far? At that far it was prb still ridiculously loud
And that's one horrifying echo damn
I love this sound!
When is the medium city and small city coming out?or is it already out?
Where were these built, do you know? I used to live a couple hundred yards from the Chrysler assembly plant in Newark DE (they made tanks during WW2), and we had one of these sirens as the "call" for the volunteer firefighters, mounted on top of the firehouse near Main Street.
Wow. Hardly anything scares me anymore, but that is quite a scary sound. I'd hate to be right next to one of those things. But still pretty cool how they're made.
Trust me, the last thing you’d be worried about is it sounding scary if you would be right next to it as it is beyond loud
Goosebumps, like I've never had before. That's simply petrifying.
@ Ben De Santis...
So your saying if I was right next to it, I would no longer have eardrums?
what actually causes the source audio sound and transducer? anyone know?
