Who has best sound unit for a SD-7?
Author: tomstp

Just bought a proto SD-7 Rio Grande engine.  I already have a Broadway Ltd SD-9 with a very good and loud sound system in it.  To up grade the Proto SD-7 what would be the best sound and Dcc system  and speaker to put in it?  I would want one with fair loud volume.

This is frankly a case of ask two people, get two answers.

Personally, I would use a Nix board with an ESU 21 pin V5 decoder and an iPhone 4 speaker.

The iPhone speakers are about the best you can find. And if you have enough room in your SD7 use two of them.

If the iPhone speakers are about 8 ohms, how do you wire two of them?
Or maybe the more important question: is the iPhone speaker 8 ohms?

I have done a few dual installs but don't feel its necessary.   One is plenty.
