True Blast muffled sound

Fried boards don't work at all most of the time.

Your speaker location could be the cause of low volume. The sound waves coming from the back of the speaker will "cancel out" the waves from the front. Do you have a baffle that blocks the rear of the speaker?

There is an adjustable volume control on the circuit board.  It's a little silver thing that sticks up near one corner and has a flat hole through it.  Put a small flathead screwdriver into it and you can adjust the volume.

 

If that doesnt' work, then do you have any holes in the frame/shell for the sound to come through?

Thanks so much for your answers. I did have a speaker/baffle combo that I installed today, and I found the volume adjustment and cranked it up. It's working well now, but I'm coming to the conclusion that this loco deserves an ElectricRR sound card. It's a conventional, but runs amazingly well at slow speed. Anyone have thoughts on the ElectricRR sound card running in conventional mode?

If you have the money, I'd go for the ERR kit.  I have one in my WIlliams 733 and it really makes it more fun.  I also have the TMCC board in it, but it would work just as well without it.

The ERR RailSounds Commander works well with conventional, of course you don't have the whole range of sounds you do under command/control.
