Try putting two speakers back to back in your PVC pipe. Then drill a small hole in the side for the wires to come out, and seal the hole with any kind of glue.
I've used two speakers with Soundtraxx decoders in many installations. I have several FA,FB, and F7 A and B consists with a speaker in each unit. I use the Miniatronics miniature connectors, and just put another speaker in the B unit. The miniature connectors allow you to separate the two units for service.

QUOTE: Originally posted by scubaterry My next project will be to try to get sound in my two GP-30's more difficult as there is much less room for speakers.
QUOTE: You mentioned foam in the enclosure...Would you pack the enclosure tightly or just loosly?
QUOTE: Originally posted by scubaterry The one I have has a metal backing to it with only two very small cresents of opening so enclosing it was a breeze. I just glued a small piece of cardboard over each cresent. I will give that a shot and if the sound is not loud enough I may have to put in a slightly larger enclosure.
QUOTE: I have read some people say to make the enclosure as small as possilbe others say 1 1/2 times the area of the speaker baffle??? DOn't know will have to play it by ear literally.
QUOTE: Originally posted by scubaterry So now I have a two speaker set up that should sound great once finished. I know soundtrax rec that you don't use multiple speakers on this module (AT100LC) I have had it wired up to two one inch speakers in a boxcar previous and it sounded fine.
