Rotating Types
Alongside the HPSS32, there is a rotating version, called the HPSS32R. The only known HPSS32Rs are in Menominee, MI, however they use the 16 watt controller more commonly found on the HPSS-16 series, most likely meaning that each speaker is 400 watts. There are 3 HPSS32Rs in Menominee next to inactive, early model, ACA Alertronics.
