Default Aftermarket Horns?

Alright this has been bothering me forever, the horns on 4th gen camaros. They sound so wimpy, does anyone know of any aftermarket horns that don't sound so crappy? Maybe of a little lower pitch and really have some ***** to it? I was looking at the Fiamm AM 80 horns and thought they sounded pretty good. What do you guys think?

They usually sound wimpy cause just about every F-Body has the low tone go out from the start. I replaced mine in the SS with a Advanced Auto low tone, and it sounds better. Now I got to do the Z28 that I got a few months ago, it does sound wimpy. Maybe someone can chime in on which tone the low is, D, F.... I can't remember.

Edit, found it:
A is the high tone, F is the low.

Some info in this thread.

You could buy Hella Supertones or PIAA Sport Horns.

Obnoxious as in "I would never use them" or as in "they really get attention"?
