Who doesn’t know the problem: if you work on locos and decoders (e.g. run wires from loco to tender), you need thin, extremely flexible cables. These are not always easy to get. Responding to many requests from our customers, as of now we offer you super thin cables (AWG 36) with an outside diameter of only 0.5 mm (0.02 inch), in all common DCC colors. They come in 10 m (30 feet) bundles at an affordable price.

A very important part of the LokSound system is the speaker. Therefore, we only use specially developed loudspeakers geared to the sound decoder. Here we recommend the following old saying, the bigger the speaker, the better the sound. As such, we offer loudspeakers in various sizes, one of them will surely fit into your loco. Should there not be enough space, you can also install the speaker in a ‘ghost waggon’ directly behind the loco.
