9years old, and still such a short and sweet video that perfect describes the physical and sound differences between the two horns. and a perfect little audio demo of the two. nice.
🍎For all thoes asking why one would install an aftermarket horn. I'll list 3 reasons. ●Inclement weather prevents other drivers from hearing a stock horn. Snow covered, loud hail, high winds. ●Having a louder, more piercing sound, can give the other drivers additional vital seconds to correct their situation sooner to help prevent a collision. ●And finally, noone takes a quiet horn seriously. With a loud horn they will instinctively become alert to their surroundings, it human nature. Louder is more alerting. SHARPTONE with 12v relay wiring harness for the win. Drive safe :)
TotalDbag. lol right on. I just installed the Hella Sharp Tone (yellow) and kept one of two stock horns in the circuit. They are significantly louder and I do recommend them. Ebay sells the Hella sharp tones for $28. You could save yourself some time and plug n play or if you want to keep one of your old horns to fill in the frequency, buy a universal wire harness that'll fits relays. You might need to modify the wire length with a universal horn wire harness but its not too bad, just make sure everything is water proof and use dielectric grease everywhere. :) Subimods probably has just the horns for sale stll also.
The Sharptone sounds so much better. The supertone sounds too much like something on a fishmarket truck in China...you know, the little 3 wheeled things...
Note for correction to specs: The Supertone is 300Hz and 500Hz @ 118dB. The Sharptone is 350Hz and 415Hz @ 115dB. Thanks for the comparison at the end.
My wife’s Rav 4 came with horns I can only describe as “anemic”. Semi’s could not here them and nearly had a collision because of that. Installed a set of Hella Supertones and changed that equation. I’m installing a set of sharptones on my motorcycle for the same reason. Great horns, very affordable.
Thanks for posting this! I had looked into buying a Supertone for my vintage Volvo because they're what's all over the enthusiast parts sites, but after listening to this I chose to buy the Sharptone. I honestly think it sounds a lot more like just a louder version of the stock horn than the Supertone, which to me sounds a lot more Italian than anything. Honestly think that if they flip-flopped the names they'd be more accurate. :P And hey, the blue and gold works on a Swedish car as well as it does on a Subaru anyway.
I wonder how it would sound if you mixed the yellow with the red? In the 70's (working on Air cooled VW's , my brother mixed a 6v horn with a 12v horn, they harmonized, super cool!
Hello, unfortunately without supplying 12v power and ground to this horns, we cannot verify they will function properly. We do not have any experience with horns that do not utilize 12v power.
The super tone has a higher note where as the sharp tone has a louder factory sounding resonance. We have not specifically heard both of these horns used together. But the final product would be a combination of said high note and lower note.
Good. I ordered the kit this past Wednesday. Where's my stuff? :) Hella Sharptone Horn Combo with Subimods Bracket and V2 Wiring Harness 2002-2014 WRX / STI / LGT / FXT
i install it on my Hyundai Veracruz and i cut off my factory plug and connect 2 wire , when I plug it to Hella horn it sound either way there is no positive or negative it works either way , anyone know why ? No replay need it , I thought it won’t work if i hook the wire up wrong , in this case it works either way .
I'm using my horn because you're doing something stupid--like putting on your makeup while driving , and you're moving into my lane! I need to you get your attention immediately. Nobody using their cares about polite. Twat!
@@peterrocan2542...actually, Japanese horns were designed to be polite while getting someone's attention; hence the 'cute beep' sound; attention grabbing but non-offensive. Culture man, culture.
I know its 3 years late. If you want the maximum loudness then yes install the relay and harness. If you are okay with similar to factory loudness then you can likely use the factory harness without issue. Try at your own risk.
I have a 2017 Nissan Rogue Sport SV and it is a nice vehicle but those horns are wimpy and embarrassing! I use to own a 2013 Passat and I thought those horns sounded better. I just need a single horn kit to replace that awful thing that came on it. Why are Japanese horns such a joke???? I can see them sounding so awful if it was just a tiny little clown car but those things must go!!
It still looks better than any exterior mod for a Honda fit's perfectly inside the subaru grill especially color matched to the car... and of its a "rice mod" as its not an engine mod it's exterior/horn... dumbass.
Hella JUNK! They were loud for a minute and then they rusted out and no longer function. I loved the loud GTFOOMW sound. But they rust out SO quick. Horrible quality.

Ever hear the horn on a Hyundai? They don't work for shit.
TotalDbag. The car? or the horn for the car? cos I could see both.
Gamma Light The horn. It's the weakest, gayest horn you'll ever hear.

why are there differences in Hz, may i be enlightened please? someone? thnaks in advanced
Wich one sound louder?
That's the frequency of the "note played" the "tone" being made. 300hz is approx D[4]. 500hz is approx. B[4].

Install bosch europa instead
@@MartinDaBoi Why? The supertonic performed wonderfully!
@@nogrey bosch europa can be heard by truck drivers
@@MartinDaBoi So can the Hellas.
Finally had my local guy install my Sharptones with bracket and harness on my 03 WRX - so much better. I'm much happier now.
👍🏻
Can it play "La Cucaracha?
Can YOU play la cucaracha ?
If you use only 2 notes, then yes!
Unfortunately no:/
Awesome, and thanks you guys! Loving the sound of the newer sharp tone, and really dig the color too. Thanks for the sound test.

Thanks for watching the video and glad we can help!
Excellent video. I bought 2 pairs of the Sharptones for my car and my mom's car.
Thank you!
I wonder how it would sound if you mixed the yellow with the red? In the 70's (working on Air cooled VW's , my brother mixed a 6v horn with a 12v horn, they harmonized, super cool!
We have not tried this option, we will keep it in mind for future videos!
Awesome review, I am definitly getting the Sharptones. . Thanks
Thank you! Glad to hear it!
i wish they made the sharptones in more colors then just yellow. where's the all blacks at?
Unfortunately this is not something being offered at the moment.
I am planning to install the sharp tone on my motorcycle but I want to know, first, if it is splash proof or not?
These are often mounted in the grilles of vehicles however I do not believe Hella offers any formal splash testing results.
I'm going to install both pairs because why the hella not?
Did you do this and did you make a video please
@@headfuckd I bought them recently but have not yet installed them. I'll make a video when I do.
hella ya
Can you run 4? Two super and two sharp at once?
Not just me that wants to see this then

Did you try it?
I’m looking for a replacement horn for my tractor. I don’t want to run an Additional 12 V wire to operate the horn, what do you recommend?
Hello, unfortunately without supplying 12v power and ground to this horns, we cannot verify they will function properly. We do not have any experience with horns that do not utilize 12v power.
How does Super and Sharp tone sound together?
The super tone has a higher note where as the sharp tone has a louder factory sounding resonance. We have not specifically heard both of these horns used together. But the final product would be a combination of said high note and lower note.
What can you recommend for a pickup truck
Hella horns are great horns for any vehicle!
So the Supertones have a higher pitched tone than the Sharptones? Correct?
Good. I ordered the kit this past Wednesday. Where's my stuff? :)

Sounds like music playing
When can we hear the horns

these sharptone hellas are nice! but my wife loves the super tone hella so I installed four of them on our Nissa np300.
All 4 of them must be very loud! Awesome product, for sure
how does it compare with air horn?
doesn't
Sharptone is more polite. You want to be loud, not rude.
I'm using my horn because you're doing something stupid--like putting on your makeup while driving , and you're moving into my lane! I need to you get your attention immediately. Nobody using their cares about polite. Twat!

They will cause offending drivers to soil themselves.

Idk i think my stock horn sound better it’s not as wimpy as say a Honda horn
