mkrob Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Being relatively new to DCC, I noticed our friends @Liverpool are selling NCE decoders, which I’ve never seen before. Has anybody tried them on this forum? It’s the same company which sell the controllers, which have a very good reputation. There is some comments on this forum about NCE decoders, but the posts date back 4 years & are a bit negative, so things may have changed since then. Their website has all the relevant information about the decoders. http://www.ncedcc.com/ https://ncedcc.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/211506863-NCE-decoder-model-numbers-explained Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-UnitMad Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Yep, I've used non-sound NCE "DA-SR" decoders in particular, in HO and never had any problems at all, same with a D408 for O Scale. In fact I've used the DA-SR to power a couple of Atlas O scale locos too (twin motors wired in series), so I think they're fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnb Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I've used quite a few D13SR without problems. John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRman Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I have a few NCE decoders, but I'm not particularly keen on them myself. They are not bad, and have a few extra features that suit US locomotives more, but I found them very hard to match behaviours with other brands.They do usually represent good value for money though.

mkrob Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 Thanks for all your input guys.Think I'll try Zimo MX600R & Lenz decoders! They seem to be the decoders of choice for most European modellers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Ray H Posted October 1, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 1, 2016 Rob I have a couple of Zimo 645 sound decoders and am pleased with them although I admit to not having tweaked their CVs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
