Stewart VO-660 sound drives
Posted by tstage on Friday, October 26, 2012 9:40 PM

Does anyone have one of the Stewart VO-660 switchers with the Loksound decoder?  How is the sound?  Which Loksound decoder does Stewart use and which version?

I already have a Stewart VO-660 but found a REALLY good deal for the powered sound chassis.  I also love the low-speed response of the Loksound decoders.  Just wanted to see whether it was worth pursuing or not.  Thanks.

 I keep meaning to get one if I find one cheap, like I did my FT chassis. I would definitely get the Loksound one, I think they are 3.5 Micros in there, I don;t think the 4.0 was out yet when they made those.

 Or, I will start shaving metal on one of mine and put one in myself, probably a 4.0 Micro so I can swap the sounds around if the stock sound set has the wrong horn or something. If the stock sounds have the right ones, a Select Micro would be just as good.
