The question is. What amplifiers are they using? ;)

They look a little big for @amirm to test...

A South Korean military spokesperson said there were two to six hours of broadcasts daily, day and night, at irregular hours. While the exact distance the sound travels will depend on topography, weather conditions and so on, the South Korean military claim the broadcasts can be heard as much as 10 km (6.2 miles) across the border in the day, and up to 24 km (15 miles) across at night.

The one pic is claimed to show the electronics powering the speakers. Looks like a variac of sorts.

Maybe they're broadcasting the funniest joke in the world!

South Korean should install a similar array that blasts noise cancelling waves.

It should sound terrible on the other side of the fence though .... :p

Word is South Korea is working on a giant noise canceling system to combat this offensive. It will be an arms race of sound!

The south should get those giant subwoofers you find in the hood, usually in the guy’s car behind me or beside me. The ones that make your mirrors bounce around. All those mirrors bouncing around will make the north surrender within a week.
