Default What's the best and loudest horn to replace stock?

Have a 2009 Ultra Classic and looking to replace the stock "beep-beep" horn with something louder. What do you recommend and why?
Thanks and Ride Safe.

If you want loud and not too expensive I think the way to go is a Stebel air horn. I have had them on my last two bikes. Friends come up and say "I hear you have a real loud horn?" When I show them, they jump. Every time. The horn is very loud and not bad looking.

Stebel and Wolo are basically the same horn. Price is the only difference. I had both so I speak with experience. Yes I love them!

yeah, both of those are "**** your pants" loud. Stebel also makes the OEM horn for Bentley and Ferarri so if you're familiar with what they sound like, that's what you get...I wouldn't want to use it without ear plugs.

I had a mini beast on my softail, and it was sufficient.

However I would prefer being seen to being heard, and at that I go with a modulating headlight (kissan) and a BAL for the rear end.
