Well if you look at it from a practical point of view...the people on the street, who are really the ones who benefit or lose from not being able to properly hear an emergency vehicle/differentiate between fire and police and medic, do they care whether the sound is mechanical or electronic? Probably not.



Sometimes I am hard-pressed to tell the difference myself. Of course, I prefer the real thing, but I also have an appreciation for the electronic-siren-only fire vehicles from years past (in Tampa)...as I could sometimes tell the difference between the ambulance siren and the fire truck siren (a very minimal variation between the two).
