alexander said:"Smooth Drive", "DCC buzz", does that mean, that it makes a buzz?

UP SD40-2 said:PLEASE, i don't want to burst your bubble, REALLY, I DON'T , but i noticed you want to put the sound decoder in a diesel, MY advice(and this is JUST MY ADVICE), stay away from the Soundtraxx LC decoders, and if you want sound engines,announce1 DEFIANTLY STAY AWAY FROM THE BACHMANN DCC SYSTEM!!! YOU CANNOT ADJUST CVs WITH THAT SYSTEM!!! there are MANY better sound decoders out there today, and the same goes for lower cost DCC systems . you WILL thank yourself later for getting better then you have mentioned, BELIEVE ME . **AGAIN, just my advice. -Deano
Stuart, I TOO had them , then i spent a couple more dollars and got sound decoders like LokSound, MRC brillance, Digitraxx, etc. needless to say i have since taken out the LC decoders and replaced them with what I FEEL are FAR BETTER decoders . HEY, the LC decoders might be JUST GREAT, for you:thumb: . and thats FINE, NOTHING WRONG with that:thumb: . but in MY OPINION(I'll say it again, MY OPINION), I think even MRC's cheap AD370(about $45.00) sound decoder outperforms the Soundtraxx LC decoders. ALL the sound decoders i have mentioned run on DCC OR DC, and have ADVANCED lighting effects, AND, ALL except the AD370 have "back EMF". **SORRY FOLKS, but to me, selling someone on the LC series, just seems like you are selling them short, compared to "other" decoders that ARE available RIGHT NOW . BUT HEY... thats just MY OPINION . -DeanoStuart said:Hmmm, and why should we not use the LC-100 decoder???? I have a few in steamer and diesels and they all work great..
