Re: What were sirens originally invented to do

Sirens were invented by Charles Cagniard de la Tour. Also, he wanted to use the siren as a warning alarm on ships. And yes, the siren was also used for music so they can measure exact frequencies

Re: Fake video list

The LK-2001 is an SRNB clone. The siren in the video was an SRN. It is still pretty funny with them hoping that no enthusiasts find it.
