I am sorry for the discussion triggered by my remark about the humming sound of ESU decoders. They do "work as designed" for those of us that hear them, eg. like me. There is nothing you can do. I discussed it lengthly with ESU developers a long time ago (this part of the hard- and software has never changed). I am glad most do not hear it or do not notice it and are happy with an extreme flexible sound decoder. I love the concept of customer sound uploading. I and my locomotives will join you again when ESU reworks it motor control. There are rumors they will do so with version 5. Have a great Christmas season!

I had the same discussion with ESU, Atlas, and IM; and they all acknowledge the buzz exists and that there is nothing they can really do about it.  I'm simply surprised that so few others notice it. Hopefully the upgraded version will address it.  

I too like the ESU motor control, and hope others enjoy their decoders as they seem to.  

My new Christmas Athearn GP15 has the Tsunami2, but the slow speed performance hasn't been upgraded like I had hoped it might.
