I love the Tsunami Decoders! They have raised the bar on DCC sound quality. Now. LokSound can beat them if they get better recordings, simply because of the custom sound making ability.

thats nice. I wonder if i can have that in my Kato F40PH's.

@grizzlyacpm Yes. But the horn isn;t a Nathan K5LA on the roof, its an S5T.

Thanks for the heads-up, ACLTony. I'm glad to hear the folks at ESU aren't just resting on their laurels.
I was beginning to think that I may have to defect over to the Tsunami camp if LokSound doesn't bring on the upper-tier stuff soon.

Penny,
A computer consultant that I know visited the NMRA convention in MIchigan last year. He met with the ESU LokSound rep and noted that the gentleman was very down-to-earth with an easy to talk to, humble attitude.. Good news is that LokSound has been working on their next upgraded/version of sound decoders as well as sound samples. Don't worry, they don't intend to ignore customer input.

I agree wholeheartedly, BNSF5608. LokSound's ability to fully customize the sound is their key asset, but it doesn't seem as though they've been putting much effort (if any) into providing higher quality sounds for their decoders lately.

This sounds far better than the MRC sound system that comes stock from Athearn.
Impressive quality! Please post another vid with her pulling a train.
The 645 series prime mover and the turbocharger sound sweet. What type of horn is this? The prototypes were delivered with Leslie S-3BJ horns (later replaced with 5-chimers) and I vaguely remember reading that the Tsunami has it available.
