Can't go wrong with the Phoenix sound made specifically for a Dash 9.
Here is a link to their diesel sounds:

Phoenix works on DC, you don't need DCC for it to work.
I also found out that Soundtraxx makes a Dash 9 sound in their Sierra line. They have two horn choices. Here is the link to the sound samples:
Sierra Sound
Look at file numbers 831032 and 831038.
Oh Sierra also works just fine on DC systems. My Accucraft Goose #5 uses Sierra sound and runs off of track power...no DCC.

Dallee is the sound manufacturer that Aristocraft is using at first.
Suggested retail is $110, and no reprogramming module for these units.
Iprefer Phoenix for the ease of programming sounds, and I have Sierrafor a dedicated sound in my SD-45's. I will have to try the RDCunit by Dallee and I hope to get one in York.

I've read both sides of the discussion of "yes you can use any oil in any engine" and "no, only use Aristo oil in Aristo engines", but from my personal experience, I have used LGB in the past in my Aristo and will NOT do so in the future.
