I have, what is probably a really dumb question. You'll have to excuse me as I'm not good at the mechanics of things. I recently had a Code 3 MicroCom 2 installed. I bought it used and is about a year old. I really don't think the siren is as loud as it should be from a 200 watt siren. It sounds as loud, if not quieter than the 100 watt sirens in our apparatus. Now for my dumb question...I had the siren hooked up to a new STL (I know) 200 watt compact speaker. As the installer was working on the siren he noticed that the power and ground wire had been actually sealed in to the speaker itself. He had to cut the wires out and re caulk around it. I am guessing that’s the reason for the quietness, but I wanted to ask if it could be an issue with the siren amp itself before going and spending the money i should of spent to beginning with and get a good name brand speaker...
