How about hearing aids that are like radios.  Just geared to pick up the sounds 
in your ear . Not on the layout???????????             Merry Christmas

  Jim, I'm going to agree with you about the loudness of some of the 
  functions. One thing that drove me crazy with the earlier Soundtraxx 
  units was that the bell and horn/whistle were set with the same CV. A 
  very little bell goes a long way!

  I think the only exception and one thing that so far the sound people 
  have been unable to duplicate is the sound of a K class engine's whistle 
  echoing off the mountain walls. You can hear those whistles for miles 
  down the canyons--a sound you'll never forget especially if you're 
  walking the rails not far away!
