This is the most beautiful hi-lo ive ever heard from a whelen! I wish there were more of these whelens around that have hi-lo sounding just like this one. I really miss this whelen...
It has been almost 12 years since this was uploaded and this siren was removed. I love the Hi-Low tone on this particular Whelen, and I really think they should offer this version of the Hi-Low tone again for their current sirens. That would be amazing.
@@MasenMonster Yeah. But sadly Whelen discontinued the 864. The hi lo on the new 2030 sounds very different. I don't mind it, but it's not as good as this version is.
This is actually an 8/10 port high low and it sounds nice, but the newer ones are slowed down for a reason. Because of reverberation, it can be hard to tell from a far distance that these are doing high low cause they alternate too fast.
I'll never understand why they went ahead and replaced them instead of installing UltraVoice panels on their sirens. They could have continued to use whoop and hilo and still would have had the 360 coverage from these omni sirens. If they needed more coverage they could have just added some Modulators or Eclipse 8s at that point. Better yet they could have gone with Whelen and added some 2900s in and upgrade the existing sirens and replace blown drivers; WPS-2760s are just as good as 2906s with new drivers and a new panel... They ended up adding Mod IIs into their system earlier...
What pisses me off is the fact that this lovely sounding siren was replaced with an FS 2001 (the siren that I hate because of its extremely loud high pitched eardrum killing sound)
Hey Mike this is not a 2740. Its actually a 2750. Look at how many of the driver cells it has. It has 5 so that means its a 2750. Not a 2740. Not trying to be offensive just correcting. I am going to miss this good old siren after it gets taken down.
is it painted white? if so, interesting. i forgot to favorite this b4 and i'm glad i found it. the siren freaks me out with the look of the place. and for some reason i like that.
He was actually meaning in the description that on Dec 31st, 2007, this siren including all the others in Dearborn were sounding off at 8PM to warn people that a snow emergency is in effect. This video was taken January 1st, 2008 at 8AM which of course is gonna have some bit of lighting outside. When Dearborn uses their sirens to sound off for snow emergencies, they usually sound it off more then once.
what if that's the only place they can put there cars? well, i guess it's better than having them completely snowed in. i hate that. but neighborhood streets are always the last to get plowed here, so.
This IS a old siren, Most whelens dont sound like this This thing is completely analog, There are very little of these things around. but their tone's sound way better than todays, Today's hi lo is, Well... Terrible!

They still do technically. The hi lo on the ESC-864 controller sounds a lot like this. I’m pretty sure that it is actually using the same controller.
@@MasenMonster Yeah. But sadly Whelen discontinued the 864. The hi lo on the new 2030 sounds very different. I don't mind it, but it's not as good as this version is.
@@MasenMonster yeah it was only heard on analog 864 controllers

Thank you for that reasoning! I am the Outdoor Warning Siren Coordinator for my county and am always interested in other's policies.
Funny, there's still a 2750 in Eastpointe still kicking
i like this sound card better than new card sound
This siren has I think an ESC-864 controller!
All of the 2750s have been decommissioned. Some are still standing, but definetly not in use, sadly.
Now its been officially 2 years since this siren sounded off in this vid.
Its been more than 13 years since that whelen sounded in this video
@@dank980 i HATE that these were replaced, this is actually my only reason for hating 2001s
@@FATTIEASMR Undertandable reason, but I would honestly hate on the people that wanted the Whelens replaced. 2001's are actually pretty neat sirens!
@@xXSo1arGamingXx they’re neat sirens but they are quite literally the toyota corolla of the siren universe.
I like this Hi-Lo tone more than the newer Whelen sirens.
may this welen rest in peace :/ stupid 2001s
Now it has been officially a full year since that good old Whelen has sounded that exact day.
Wow! I wasn’t even born in the early 2008 💀
15 years later
It has now been officially 3 years since that sounded off.
i live in dearborn and my friends left ear went deaf because of this
They should replace the 2001 with a new WPS 2910
Dang. That is a very rare port ratio!
This is pretty much what a 4/5 Port thunderbolt on chopper level 4 would sound like if it were operating in Hi-Lo
@@xXSo1arGamingXx cool.
@@MasenMonster very rare indeed!
@@xXSo1arGamingXx
Got a video of it!?

That's because Whelen WPS-2700 Series are exactly the same as a Whelen WPS-3016 except Omni Directional.
imagine if a 2011 could do hilow. now theres a big headache lol
Get off this page matt
I like that cool sounds like a clown police siren
@crabsnpubes i meant what i said this one is now a 2001! :(

Okay... Wayne County doesn't have the 2001 viruse completely... few..
Hey, atleast Wayne, MI Still has their Whelens.
Hi neighbor!
From Dearborn Heights.
Wow I didn't know that it was used to tell people to move their cars. That is interesting.
Really??
Btw I’m sorry for replying 15 years later 💀
They should've kept those sirens, or gotten new whelens.

I agree, I miss hearing all the whoop whoops on the 1st Saturday
And I do miss there old system at least goetz parks 2750 is still there but with ultra voice controllers
I agree, especially since 2001s can do only 3 signals and Whelens can do 7
This siren has been replaced 5 months ago. :(
As much as I love 2001s, they really should've left these damn Whelens there instead of replacing them.
i remember that we got 1 1/2 ft of snow in norther macomb
What pisses me off is the fact that this lovely sounding siren was replaced with an FS 2001 (the siren that I hate because of its extremely loud high pitched eardrum killing sound)

European tourists would maybe think, "Why in the name of god is there a giant police siren on a pole?" .
Indonesian tourists: What’s that giant railroad crossing siren doing on a pole?
Sounds like a gigantic Italian ambulance.
Lol I like the snow covered 2750!
Yes.
Gigantic Alarm Clock
What's that metal cabinet on the siren poll for? Is that a control box or something?
Battery and control box.
The frequency of the Hi Lo isn't 800/1000. It's 864hz/1100hz
It's actually around 430/540hz
Sounds like a British fire engine
me: (hears whelen doing hi lo) *gets up* HMMMMMMM i see no fire... of yes i forgot its 12:00
whelen: just randomly stops
me: WHELEN SIREN=BROKEN
The siren was replaced with a 2001 today
I think it’s going off

It WAS covered in frost. I say was, because this siren had been replaced with a Federal Signal 2001.
Really? It's snow man.
Sounds like a 6/5 / 10/12 hi lo not 8/12
8/12 is a whelen hi lo isn't it?
This one is older
@SpeakerFreak95 they either scrap them or put them up for sale.
When was that Whelen WPS 2750 installed
It was installed in 1989, but was replaced by a 2001-130 later in 2008.
@@MinecraftPro97k how do you know it was installed on that day (just wondering)
U get a ticket if. don't move or car?!?!
