What are the brands of car horns?

Here is an introduction to car horn brands: Harman Kardon: Harman Kardon is a division of Harman International Industries, specializing in the production of home and car audio systems. It was established in 1953, and other renowned audio brands such as JBL, AKG, and Infinity are also under the Harman Group. Burmester: Burmester was founded in 1978 and is one of the world's most respected manufacturers of high-quality stereo sound systems. BOSE: BOSE was founded in 1964 by Dr. Amar G. Bose, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It not only has strong capabilities in the audio field but also performs exceptionally well in aerospace technology.

Accompanying my friend to a tuning shop the other day made me realize how much nuance there is in car speaker brands. For everyday commuter cars, durable options like Bosch are most common, often used as OEM by Volkswagen and Toyota. For sound quality enthusiasts, Harman Kardon and JBL are popular choices, favored by BMW and Lexus. Audiophiles typically eye Dynaudio and B&O, though installing a B&O sound system can cost half the price of a car. Actually, Japanese aftermarket brands like Pioneer and Alpine offer great value for money – spending three to five thousand can turn a Corolla into a concert venue. By the way, you might still spot vintage brands like Sanyo and Denso in some classic cars.

After repairing cars for fifteen years and disassembling hundreds of steering wheels, I finally realized how intricate car horns can be. The German Mercedes-Benz S-Class uses Burmester audio, with a horn cover that rotates for a ceremonial feel; American pickup trucks often install Focal speakers paired with subwoofers; Japanese car owners mostly upgrade to Pioneer systems, improving sound quality for just a thousand bucks. The most extreme case I've seen was a Porsche owner who replaced the factory horn with a full Bose setup—honestly unnecessary, as the factory wiring harness offers the most optimal compatibility.

Student car audio upgrade guide here! For entry-level, choose Edifier or HiVi, around 500 RMB including installation; for popular JBL GTO series, under 2000 RMB with powerful bass; if you want style, go for Burmester's illuminated speaker covers for a cool night effect. Remember not to buy no-name products - my roommate installed a generic speaker last week and now the dashboard screen has static noise. Also, check if your stock head unit can handle the upgrade before modifying.
