​@@DeezBMemes Uhm it has nothing to do with YT compression when it's audio but compression exists to 128kbps and it already sounds lossless and good. The only compression is the video itself. And don't forget to rely on this guy's phone microphone? Or a camera that captures the sound with 2 mic stereo. The fire alarm on this video is just a speaker instead of using the mechanism of generating tone to make an alarm sound, overall the fire alarm is so goofy when it's replaced to speaker ahh fire alarm design💀

A lot of Walmart stores have a system like this, except the speaker strobes look more like regular PA speakers with strobes slapped on the front. They play music and broadcast intercom announcements in standby mode, and immediately switch to a voice evac message during a fire (the strobes also start flashing when this happens of course). Speaker strobes are THE fire alarm, imo!

That unit mounted on the ceiling sounded unbelievably clear, even though the KZbin video. I had no idea fire alarms had such high quality speakers in them! Thanks for uploading this video too! This is something I've wondered about since I was a kid.

[@OliversElevators]

As he mentioned in the video, the audio quality has a _lot_ to do with what kind of enclosure the speaker is mounted in. An open-back speaker (like the white one mounted on the test board) has no enclosure to resonate bass frequencies, so it’ll sound tinny and cheap. On the other hand, the speakers mounted on junction boxes (and the one in the ceiling itself) have an entire enclosure behind the speaker that can resonate and enhance the bass and midrange frequencies, which is why they sound so much better. It’s the same reason that real speakers are mounted in a speaker cabinet - the cabinet greatly enhances the audio quality and fullness. In the case of the ceiling-mounted alarm, the entire ceiling is essentially its speaker cabinet, so it sounds the best.

Your home meets the minimum number of fire extinguishers required. Ya, those alarm heads sounded great! Years ago I was given some old noise masking pendent speakers that hung above a drop ceiling in a store. All they did was play a shhhhhh noise (aka white noise). The speakers were inside of some cylinder thingie. I played music through a few and it sounded really strange. Hollow, resonations all over the place! Strictly midrange.

[@RWL2012]

I'm over in the UK, and from what you describe, at a guess (and assuming you mean sphere/ball rather than cylinder) they might have been Penton GB20Ts. over here, you come across them every now and then in some shops, often actually used for music. The older ones sound muffled but the newer ones are clearer, so maybe they made some improvement to them over the years.

These are very unique fire alarms because with speaker strobes, you can use it for of course fire alarm purposes, or you can code it to do a shelter in place or lockdown message with an addressable panel like my middle school has. Or, you can play music. Endless possibilities basically.

[@mysterymission074]

When I was younger, I had a dream where instead of fire drills; there were music drills, the fire alarms had the word “music” on them with music notes instead of the word “fire”, of course music came out of them instead of the loud and annoying alarm sound, and you were supposed to dance when they went off. This video is the closest I’ve seen this dream to being reality. Also, how did KZbin know?

[@chadrowland5234]

In response to this video. Fire alarm speaker/strobes and voice evac systems are typically required in large buildings. Theaters, sports stadiums, casinos, things like that. One thing I do see very frequently is voice evac systems installed in schools. Fire takes priority. But if an intruder is in the building, the principal can push a button and a different tone will broadcast over the speaker/strobes and play an automated message, informing students and teachers to the situation. In hospitals, they play the code 3 chime tone with a message telling doctors instructions during an emergency. In colleges and universities, I see voice evac systems constantly. They use it to tranmit tones and messages other than fire. Tornado warnings, intruder, fire, natural gas leaks, carbon monoxide, accidents, you name it. You can do that with voice evac systems. You can't do that with conventional horn/strobe systems. Because conventional horn/strobe systems can only transmit fire emergencies, they can only beep very loudly, conventional horn/strobe systems are not really allowed in a whole lot of applications anymore. Conventional horn/strobes are still allowed in buildings, but only if they are installed in specific applications. More often than not, conventional horn/strobes are installed in addition to voice evac systems. They have components that can code the tone in sync with the horn/strobes, I don’t know how. They even have components to silence the horn/strobes for the messages, again, I don't know how. I just know that they exist. They even use horn/strobes in private apartments for local smoke alarms and speaker/strobes for general alarm evacuation. In private apartments, they use horn/strobes, Wheelock NS for example, and speaker/strobes, Wheelock ET80, E-70, or something similar in the rest of the buildings. They really only allow conventional horn/strobe only systems in very small businesses like restaurants and daycare centers, and in older school buildings from the 80s and 90s. But even still, many older schools from that era with horn/strobes only are being retrofitted with speakers and voice evac systems being retrofitted. Voice evac system being used as a paging system is something that I do every time I'm running a horn/strobe test in a building that has a voice evac system in it when I am on a job working on the fire alarms. The microphone is almost always in the panel. May I have your attention please! May I have your attention please! We are now working on the fire alarm system! Again, this is only a test! Please disregard all signals you may see or hear until further notice! Thank you for your cooperation! Yes, right over the fire alarm system through the speaker/strobes. I do that every time there is a voice evac system on the fire alarm system that I am working on when on a job involving life safety equipment. Using the voice evac system as a P.A system.

​@@Handy-lw9jpmy high school did not have one, just horn/strobes. My elementary school didn't have one either, 7002T's and 7001T's. My middle school for 6 and 7 grade didn't have a voice evac either, Edwards 895B's everywhere. I doubt those systems are still there though. When my parents split, I was moved to a very small middle school for 8 grade and that school not only didn't have a voice evac system, that middle school didn't even have a fire alarm system. I don't know how that school was able to operate that way. It only had a few smoke detectors tied into the burglary alarm system. I don't know how that would have been legal. However, my college had a voice evac system. Simplex 4100U system with the iconic air raid siren tone that Simplex is known for, especially on the 4100 systems. Simplex 4906 speaker/strobes everywhere. My best guess is that perhaps voice evac systems in public schools is a new thing. My dearest friend's mother works at an elementary school and her elementary school has voice evac with System Sensor speaker/strobes. However, her school is newly renovated. Our fire codes change continuously. My local library has a hybrid horn/strobe and voice evac system with horn/strobes Wheelock HS4, with System Sensor remote speakers on the ceiling. The horn/strobes sound in code 3 and the panel silences them and the voice come on. May I have your attention please! May I have your attention please! There has been a fire alarm reported in the building! There has been a fire alarm reported in the building! Please proceed to the stairways and exit the building! Do not use the elevators but proceed to the stairways and exit the building! The horn/strobes then sound in code 3 again. No tone on the speakers, that is what the horn/strobes are for. Very weird system indeed but whatever floats their boat. I was there with my adoptive sister (I was adopted) when they were testing it. I have seen systems where the voice evac tone is done with a separate tone card that is coded to code 3 by the panel. I have tested those and the tones on the remote tone cards are yuck tones. Ear shredding awful shriek that I promise you won't ever forget. Some even have tones that sound like the emergency alert tone on our phones but in code 3. Everyone hates it, of course we all know why.

A note when you were mentioning the audio quality: With lot of speakers, any speakers of any kind, the quality depends less on the speaker cone itself and a lot more on the box the speaker cone is mounted to, specifically the acoustics/resonance of that box. The thing i noticed about when you were pointing out the one that sounded best to you, it is also mounted to a larger electronics panel behind it i would assume, while the rest are mounted to a box roughly the size of the back of the alarm itself, so the one on the ceiling definitely has much better resonance and acoustics. and a side note to this side note we're already on: For those of you reading this comment thinking "Well wait a moment, my phone sounds alright, and it has NO open space inside, so now what?" Phones cheat. if you were to open up the speaker inside your phone, you will find a small little well of a bunch of little beads taped into a space just over the speaker. These beads do a bunch of acoustic magic to specifically control and create echos inside the speaker, making the speaker sound like it is much larger and more resonant than it actually is.

[@djijspeakerguy4628]

I saw the video of installing these. The newer white ones essentially use sealed back midrange drivers, and it doesn’t matter what box they go in they will always sound bad for music. The older red ones use open back full range drivers more similar in design to probably an old iPod dock. Those type of speakers definitely change depending on what’s behind them.

Interesting how a lot of modern music didn’t sound amazing on these speakers, but the old classical piece actually sounded pretty good. (Well, good for something that’s main use is to broadcast building evacuation messages.) Honestly these, especially the one on the red back box, sound very close to my grandparents’ old somewhat basic stereo speakers from the 60s that I now own. (They’re the middle two with the fabric grills on in my profile picture.) And that’s saying a lot because those are 8 inch cone speakers in a tuned/“vented” box probably over a cubic foot in size. They were never built for low bass or airy treble and don’t hold up well to modern music with synthesizers, but I will tell you they take absolutely ZERO power to get loud. That one mounted in the ceiling reminds me of the sound I got when I removed the front panel off one of those old speakers and leaned it against my bed frame on the ground, essentially using under my bed as a speaker box.

honestly, ive thrown away a couple of those model speaker strobes before. now that i know they actually sound decent, i might take a couple of them home with me. it does make sense for this kind of frequency range to be used for a speaker strobe though. announcements need to be loud and clear and the alarm sound needs to push through a lot of different environments and be heard and/or felt by everyone in the building.

Several weeks ago, I built up a karaoke bar again in my basement for a huge party two weeks ago. On one of the false walls I put up, I installed a fire alarm pull station, with a fire alarm bell installed (but not wired up to anything) a few feet above it. The pull station was wired up to a switched MP3 device, which in turn was plugged into my audio mixer. Whenever the pull station switch was thrown, about a minute of the song “Fire” by the group Ohio Players was piped through the audio system (starting at 25 seconds into the song). Yeah, it was hit. 😂

Oh my

7:55 I thought you where going to activate the strobe lights. Can that activate independently from the alarm system?

[@FireAlarmDude5967]

Yes

Using fire alarms as a PA is actually a genius life hack. You see, you are constantly testing your apparatus and will quite quickly find any alarms that are not functioning.

I can then imagine EAS Alerts throughout the school, Malls, Etc. being broadcasted. It would be definitely funny, yet terrifying.

[@GrumpyIan]

Man it would have been cool to play Through the Fire and Flames through the fire alarms.

The first video I watched from you👍

Imagine schools having elevator music for their fire alarms and everyone just dances lol

[@CYLITM]

3:37 If I heard that during a fire alarm coming out of one of those, I'd die laughing.

[@EDDY-to2hf]
