bart2day Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Which of these three companies would people recommend for a Class 43 paxman valenta hst sound decoder? I am thinking of getting one and these three seem to be the cheapest. Any advice on Class 153 sounds is also welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold pheaton Posted February 20, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 20, 2018 Neither..... legomanbiffo, but howse is a reasonable second place.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect Paul Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Keep your money in your pocket !!! If you can, check out Legoman's HST sound for yourself, at a show, as soon as you are able to. You will impressed beyond belief, and you won't believe your ears. Then see just how fast your wallet suddenly appears, as if by magic !!! *usual disclaimers etc Hope you get sorted soon.

bart2day Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Hi legomanbiffo, Do you have a showroom or premises where I could see it in action? The address on your website seems to be a residential address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Revolution Mike B Posted February 28, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 28, 2018 Charlie isn't Legoman Biffo.....he's just a mad Yorkshireman! Bif's Valenta sounds are the best on the market and don't be tempted to cut corners and save a few quid - you'll regret it! You can find Charlie and Bif at most larger shows (Ally Pally next month is a good one) but if you can't get along, just trust everyone's opinion on here and order one up from DC-Kits (Charlie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete the Elaner Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 don't be tempted to cut corners and save a few quid - you'll regret it! Seconded. Listen to what's on offer & go for the best. If this happens to be £5-£10 more, then is it really so much on a £120 item? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRDBLUE17 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I would also say Bifs Valenta HST is the best, especially when you use the best speakers for the sounds. Shame I’ve only got an MTU fitted one to do eventually but I have had a play with the Valenta on the stand at shows and it’s superb. If you can get to a show and ask to hear it for yourself.

RMweb Gold uk_pm Posted March 1, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 1, 2018 I also agree; Legomanbiffo's Valenta HST is fantastic - with the various power positions completely controllable by the driver. I love it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it! Power cars sound fantastic, but you need decoders in the mk3s too so they hiss and fart as they pass! Andi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
