Not so interested in a train horn sound if i can avoid it, but want a semi truck type sound with the train horn type volume.

Anyone got one? Leads on good sources to purchase kits?

My 2018 will have a two-trumpet air horn setup (pulled from a Mack truck), plus dual 100-watt electronic air horns via the siren system.

I didn't want a train horn either. Bought this but that air horn compressor didn't push it enough. So I got this compressor
and it sounds great. Deep loud sound like the semi trucks. Mounted the horn under the truck and the compressor is in the bed. While the compressor and tank aren't huge, I can fill my tires no problem too. No complaints.

Just curious.

Why would you want a horn of this nature? Short of scaring the sh*t out of people I don't see the reason, want or use.

Where did you mount the horn?

I'd have to snap pics but it's under the front passenger seat area.

My reason was the horn that comes with these trucks in my opinion doesn't go well with it. Sounds perfect for a car but not a truck. Again that's just an opinion.

In my case, the truck is a fully-lit emergency vehicle. The air horn is helpful while responding.

I've got the Kleinn VELO15-230 air horn that a direct fit. While the kit is a little pricey, but having everything directly fit the truck and not having to mess with where to put things or how to attach things was really nice. The triple horn is plenty loud and doesn't have that high pitch sound some air horns have. Plus the quick disconnect setup is really nice. I've taken the truck to the river to go floating and used it to air up everyone's floats.
