Not really, the difference of power between dual and single tone is so minuscule. If we are talking about the way the siren sounds, on a 6M it's pretty obvious, for a 5M and 4M, it's not easy to pick them apart unless you look at the blower itself.coastalsyrolover wrote: ↑Mon May 15, 2017 5:39 amGreenfield it depends on single or dual tone. But yes usually 6M blowers have a pulsating sound.
The actual pitch that the blower itself peaks at while running is a pretty good clue if you can pick it out. 6M blowers have a very deep pitch, almost kind of a rumble, 5M blowers have hum that's in between 6M and 4M in pitch(it's almost comparable to 60 Hz power hum in sound) and 4M blowers are normally fairly high pitched.Greenfield1003 wrote: ↑Sun May 14, 2017 11:40 pmSorry for a bit of a bump but if you want to be able to tell just the blower apart by sound then the 6M blower makes a pulsating noise, the 5M makes kind of a humming sound with a hissing undertone and the 4M makes a LOUD humming sound.
lol I guess I only write half of what I am thinking on here... the dual tone sirens you can hear the buzz pretty good. On single tones I don't usually hear the buzz as much. But all 6Ms have the pulsating thing or at least most do... regardless of the chopper.Tyler wrote: ↑Mon May 15, 2017 1:35 pmNot really, the difference of power between dual and single tone is so minuscule.
