Description
This 25 x 14 mm oval WOWSpeaker is a tough little beast: it accepts 2 watts of audio while staying clear and accurate, and its military-spec build is dust-proof and IPX5 water-resistant. Small enough for most steam tenders and dedicated diesel installs.
Pair it with a sound decoder from our DCC Decoders collection, browse more DCC Accessories, or shop the full Train Control Systems lineup.

What decoders does this work with?
It's an 8 Ω speaker that works with TCS WOWSound decoders and virtually any other DCC sound decoder rated for an 8-ohm load.
Do I need an enclosure or baffle?
Yes. Speakers need a sealed enclosure or baffle (or a sealed cavity in the shell) to move air and produce full sound — mounting it in open air will sound thin.
What scales can use it?
Any scale with enough room to mount it. Smaller drivers suit N and HO; larger round and high-bass speakers shine in HO, O, and G.
