Interesting electornic siren speaker configuration on the front bumper. I see 4 speakers, do they run two amplifiers? The only other big city department I know of that ran that ran 2 electronic sirens and 4 speakers is Houston before they went back to putting the Q sirens on their rigs.

They do run two amplifiers. This generation of DFD apparatus saw two aerials and a half dozen or so engines with 4 electronic speakers and no Q Siren. I rode with E21 which is stationed in one of Denver's more upscale areas. The neighbors cover their ears when you drive by with an electronic aimed right at the sidewalk. I perfer the Q but it does make some noise this way.
