What type of sound for a MP -15?

I have just purchased an Atlas MP-15DC switcher (CP switcher) which comes as DCC ready (8 pin) Could you advise what is the best decoder for this (with sound) and also to have an 8 pin plug ready (avoiding having to solder!)

I would replace that board with a Tsunami with 645E prototype engine without turbo.     So that would be an A format.

There is not much room in there and that' s just another reason I remove the OEM board first.

Try this site.    You can check out a lot of info here.   There is also a soundtraxx yahoo helpgroups site you can try.

This would be my choice--828048

Make sure before you buy to take the unit apart and make sure you're comfortable with install.
