Part of the fun is experimenting on what sounds good for you, its the same as choosing speakers for the job............ I use to use some years back a large 28mm speaker fitted under the fan [blu tak sealed] with all my Zimo 37's - what is now called the tortured path method [is this a Paul Chetter term... ] Those type 3 sure did growl! Finally moved on to Alan Butcher bass reflex in the tanks - a lot more work to fit - but wow do those 37's do sound deeper.........
-
You can use the fuel tanks as a sound chamber, it would work as long as it is a sealed unit and nothing escapes up into the motor area.
-
If it is a V3.5 RTR model - forget the blu tak enclosure on the chassis, fit a bass reflex 100 ohm speaker into the fuel tanks. It will go alot louder and will add bass your 37 will growl! - This is the only way to improve the RTR V3.5 model for increase loudness If its a V4 chip get youself the Alan Butcher speaker fitted into the fuel tanks - this is a serious growl on a 37!
-
The only answer to this is fitting a 100 ohm bass reflex speaker into the fuel tanks - if its a v3.5 chip. Or a Alan Butcher bass speaker into the tanks if its a V4.0 chip - either way a complete strip down is required, it is easy but certainly well worth it. Sealing the speaker will give you a slight improvement in sound - but nowhere near to fitting either of the above speakers - especially the AB speaker!

This video has shown how this latest 'Paul Chetter Zimo' has taken sound chips to another level......... As this is a Rail Exclusive special DS fitted loco, why don't they do a BR Blue version? Now that would be something.
-
Oh Yes we thrash! So you can toggle F6 to rev the 37 from coasting as long as the loco is moving above the threshold value for the thrash sound. Works a treat!

This is the lastest enhanced Class 37 multi drive on a Zimo sound chip. It shows the 37 coasting, then a bit of instant full thrash, the thrash starts automatically and is switched back to coasting via pressing F6 - at any speed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9ycYJLIQDU&feature=youtu.be

Hi,
I have 37254 [the last one released] - its the same set up as the latest model.
I have tweaked all my CV's so it runs and coast very well.
PM me if you wish to have these settings / I will be able to pm you tonight with them.
Also please remember if you press F5 notching a couple of times - you have to press F6 [notching off the same amount of times.

Rich,
I can recommend DCC supplies for your Lenz upgrade, but it depends how close you are to them.
Any problems or further info required, let me know and I will try to help.
