I have an intercom system that works using house wiring to transmit. Why would you need a second decoder? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I think Chip in order to feed the audio to the sub-woofer which of course wouldn't be on the engine, has to be sometype of physical connection. I think the dual decoder, sort of setup the way you might MU 2 engines would work, though the sync'ing may be off, not sure how you would cut the higher freqs out though unless you used sometype of electronic cross over, similar to what a 2-way or 3-way speaker would use. <br /> <br />Interesting idea [:)] <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />The physical connection would be through the track--the same way DDC signals get to the engine. It would send the signal back through the track to the amp. I would think the biggest technical problem would be fitting a transitter to the decoder. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />There is someone here on the forums that has done something similar to what you are talking about, off the top of my head I can't remember who it is. Hopefully he will pop in and give a link to his site. Though it may have been how to may sound move around the layout, though it is similar to your idea.
