Pros and cons of sound

I made the mistake of putting sound into one engine, and now I want it in all of them! I am slowly putting sound in at least one engine of every class I have. I just bought a BLI/QSI C&O T-1 2-10-4 and the thing is incredible, once you turn the volume down. We have noted one major problem with the QSI system: it draws a lot of power. If you have more than 3 or 4 of them in the same DCC block at the same time it blows the breaker. We are currently adding more boosters at the club to remedy this, but it is an expensive fix. The standard soundtraxx decoders are much more forgiving, but not as nice.
