Speaker for Athearn Genesis MT-4?
Author: funnelfan

Can someone recommend a good speaker for the Athearn SP MT-4 that has great sound and fits? I bought mine as a straight DC model and plan to add a TCS Wow sound version 4 decoder.

All the recent Athearn/Genesis locomotives I have seen are built for sound. This includes a location to securely mount a speaker in a metal housing. It seems like 1" is a common size. The exploded parts diagram in the instructions will give you an idea of what you are facing. Sunset Junction has an assortment of quality speakers one probably in the size you need.

I read the title and couldn't figure out why a Conrail yard slug would need sound...

Hey, traction motor fans and sanders make sounds!

I have not taken one of those apart, and do not have any in inventory.  We have a speaker that fits across many applications.  Our DS1240-Box sounds good and also fits many applications. 
Others here will also tell you about our line of speakers.
