I recently purchased a LifeLike Proto 2000 series SW9 locomotive and want to convert it to DCC with sound. I think I'm going to go with the Soundtraxx Tsunami "TSU-AT1000 for ALCO 539 Turbocharged"
Here is the locomotive:
And here is the locomotive with shell removed showing original 21.1x47mm circuit board which I'm going to replace:
My only concern is what size speaker should I get and where to place it. I realize that I may very well have to remove the engine's weight from the front of the locomotive. The weight itself is 21.7w X 9h X 33.5l mm. Where can I get a speaker to fit the space that won't sound horrid. If I'm going to spend the money on a tsunami I want it to sound good as well.
On a side note relating to the loco shell, the rails along the side are wavy, is it just because the engine is likely old? and how should I go about straightening them?
Thanks!
