Mystery 8/12 port siren in Cassville, WI

The OP thought it was a Screamer at first. In no way does it sound like one. Some people on YouTube are saying it's a Soundmaster, but others are saying it may be a Super Banshee.

There was a thread on here a while time ago (i'll look for it and link in a minute) that had an old ACA ad in it. Things like the Sentry 95, and the Banshee 115 which is definitley what that is.

Sounds like a soundmaster to me. They came in a wide variety of shroud configurations.

If it is a Banshee 115, it has a deeper sound than a regular Banshee. those must be pretty rare

Yeah i've seen that SoundMaster video before. They seem to have a slightly different sound to the ACA models, however they seem to peak out roughly the same. The windup is definitely different to the SoundMaster though, so Banshee 115.

Looking at the video again I noticed something, the top cap of that siren looks exactly like the one used on the larger model ACA Screamers.

Jeb's right, the top does look like the hamburger siren! ;)

What's strange is the bottom part though. It sounds like an ACA, it looks sorta like an ACA, but no-one knows for sure :S

Maybe we might be able to get better pictures of it and that would definitley help.
