  • In this video, I show you how I replace a sugar cube speaker in the South Omaha Terminal CF7 with a smart phone speaker from an iPhone 5. These speakers are very cheap (this cost about a dollar) and easy to install. Plus the sound is incredible!

    The episode I posted yesterday had issues with the audio and video syncing, so this fixes that.

    Was just wondering, I run my trains on DC, not DCC and am happy with that except for the lack of engine sounds. Is there any reason why, on a small layout, a person could not just put the sound card and speakers in a hidden location rather than in the loco? You could hook it to a nice stereo and speakers to have nice full engine sounds throughout the room. I have a fleet of over 20 locomotives I cycle through and there's no way I'm getting sound cards in all these locomotives.

    seems like a good fix. nice and small..yet, on video plenty of sound.

    • @emillerz
      @emillerz  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I have found these to be perfect for having great sound and not taking up much space.

    What controller is that?

      @emillerz  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I think you are referring to the ProtoThrottle that I use - it's made by Iowa Scaled Engineering.

    Is the Decoder a Tsumai2? I may try this speaker on my GP38. That has the recommended speaker by Soundtraxx, but it doesn't sound quite right.

    • @emillerz
      @emillerz  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep, it's a SoundTraxx Tsunami2. All of my decoders are SoundTraxx. I would definitely give it a try to replace it.

    Have you tried putting two SQ speakers in series?

    • @Nealeb1970
      @Nealeb1970 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes using 2 in series works really well, but I don't understand why the manufacturers set the volume to max. out of the factory!!! I have damaged a couple of speakers, so now I reduce the volume down to under 100 before I do anything else. I don't have a programing track so as soon as the engine starts on the main I mute and use the CV's to adjust the Master volume (cv128), then use JMRI to do the rest of my programing

    • @emillerz
      @emillerz  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have not tried this - I have only used one speaker for each decoder/locomotive.

    Well, there's nothing louder and that makes more noise than Apple computers incorporated, inc. !!!
