Speakers are the most important part of any loco sound project (other than an authentic sound of course!). We ask a lot of our small speakers, expecting great sound bass response from a speaker that we wouldn't use as a tweeter in our home sound systems!

As sound developers and modellers ourselves we have been looking for ways of improving the bass response within the limited space available in a small loco chassis. We started with the speakers, which are the foundation stone of the system, and set our objectives: Improved performance, in minimal space, with minimal price overhead!

The result is our new range of Bass enhanced speakers, to complement our full range of 8 ohm and Loksound compatible Bass Reflex speakers, all of which have been custom designed to enhance the low frequency sound which makes up a large percentage of the spectrum of locomotive sound (for either Diesel or Steam).

DCC Supplies have worked in conjunction with one of the worlds largest micro-speaker manufacturers to produce these speakers, which will considerably improve sound reproduction over the 'traditional' sealed speaker design.

This unit is based on a 35 x 16mm speaker, and measures 40mm x 20mm overall, and is a super slim 8mm deep.

As the developers of this product, we have full technical information, which is published below.
