That's normally a safe position to take.

As the basis for a tune, horns and sirens are great.

If they're just randomly thrown in to cover up a lack of content they're shit.

And no, i don't have any examples!

This. ;) I used one in a tune a couple of years back but it fits in with the "theme" of the tune - http://soundcloud.com/audio-warfare/section-63-clip

Agreed ....and 'Section 63' is a fine example of sirens being used wisely. ;)

....and here's another fine example of sirens in a track - http://www.ionosphere.co.uk/AUDIO/Ionosphere-CRITICAL-ftJR.mp3

or, this one - http://www.trackitdown.net/genre/hardcore/track/2924696.html

Sirens are great. 8)
