Good Sound DCC
Works well for simple DCC sound installation - I've used both the plug and play and hardwired this decoder and it works well. Can't really go wrong for the price, and it has options that allow you to add more features (Function FX3) that add to the modelRead full review

Good sound and easy to install.
The decoder is easy to install and performs well. It is easy to program using the CVs.

Nice sound decoder for the money
Nice sound decoder for the money. I installed it in a Genesis F3A. I had to use 12 volt LEDs for the headlight and mars light because the lighting outputs on this decoder are 12 volt. Mounted the speaker to the roof of the locomotive with double sided tape. It sounds really good. Would have to spend twice the money to do better. I will buy againRead full review

This is a good product but very limited when it comes to sound.. ie., horn bell rate and no air compressor noise .. it's not bad if you want sound at an affordable price .... I would recommend to others who cannot buy the other that are out there and this does the job ..Read full review

I am just changing over to DCC and this is my first time installing a decoder The installation was fairly easy and there is plenty of information on youtube. I was also surprised with many functions and will be doing more of my enginesRead full review

Never regretted wiring my RR for DC operation
Bought two of these to install in Athearn EMD 38 series units just as they show in the picture and describe offhandedly in their instructions.
One quit after 5 minutes of operation and the other installation has operated fidgety.
Still have to contact Digitrax and not looking forward to the continued hassle of DCC.Read full review

decoder
I contacted you once before and I tried to tell you that this decoder was defective, you told me to contact
Digitrax which alone is a pain. I tracked the problem to the black wire that is one of the track leads and found it to be dead. I know Digitrax made it, but you sold it and should be responsible for it Read full review

Digitrax Sound decoder
For the money you get what you pay for, the sound is very low and you can not increase the volume. But you get what you pay for and will not buy again. Ok for a beginner.
