The QSI Titan Series…. You Can Have Your Cake and Eat It Too!
Due to the Titan’s gigantic memory, 64 Mbits, 8x more than the competition, there are volumes of sound files stored that you can use to customize each loco ... if you wish.
For example, let’s say you have the Small Steam Decoder, it comes ready to run as the Small Steam sound with numerous Small Steam whistle, chuff bell and other options. But you changed your mind and you actually want a Large Steam Decoder? With the Titans, you are good to go, and here is why. In the vast Quantum Titan Series Sound Set ID’s memory, selectable by CV, there are hundreds of other sound options stored to change your decoder to a Medium or Heavy Steam decoder. And that’s not all ...
You can also insert custom sound files or cut and paste many other available options using the Quantum Programmer to make any Titan any other prototypical configurations. No other sound decoder can match this performance.
Reduced Item Numbers
Another benefit to the expanded memory is the simplification and reduction in the quantity of “Item Numbers” needed to represent all the prototypical locomotives. The new Titan line now has only 14 items that encompass all the prototypes compared to 50-100+ for other competing sound decoders. See the complete list below.

Stereo Speaker Locations and Suggestions
Now that there are stereo DC/DCC sound decoders, here are some suggestions for multiple speaker locations to utilize the stereo. Stereo noticeably enhances sound dimensionality and realism!
We include two speakers (up to 1.25" in diameter) at no charge with all HO Titans.
