sound value decoder

Why not sell the "sound value" decoder as a seperate item? It would sell like hotcakes!  Include a speaker and have it so it just  basicly needs to be plugged in.

I would buy them!
Especially the EMD 567!

Bachmann has been selling engines with simplified versions of the Tsunami sound decoder for quite a while now, and those decoders aren't available separately. I suspect the maker of the decoders included in the deal with Bachmann that the decoders they supply to Bachmann will only be used in Bachmann engines. I'm sure they'd want you to buy one of their regular Tsunamis if you want to add sound to a non-sound equipped engine.

The Soundtrax rep did a clinic up here in Denver about three weeks ago at Caboose Hobbies and said that an aftermarket Sound Value decoder would only be about 10 to 15 dollars cheaper than the full Tsunami and that most people would probably prefer to spend the additional money on the full featured unit.
