MRC Tech 7 transformer

I like to run locomotives from MTH and BLI and many others with sound but my layout will be DC. Would the MRC tech 7 be a good transformer to use?

thanks,

MRC makes good stuff. Any MRC power pack will be very satisfactory. I’m not up on the different models of MRC, but their low end power packs are just fine, and the fancier ones are very nice too. Mine has been running happily for 20 years.

Take the next step…Buy MRC Tech 6 since you are operating DC/Sound.

I’m not acquainted enough with MTH locomotives…But, if they have regular DCC/Sound yes,the Tech 6 will run them.

I have a Tech 6 for my DCC/Sound locomotives and sound works in either DC or DCC mode of the Tech 6.

Hi

I bought a Tech 7 about a month ago. I run N scale Kato locos. A problem i encountered was that when using this pack the locos had a “buzzing” sound that was not there on the old Tech 2 pack i’d been using previously. I went back to the Tech 2.

Now, i don’t know how a Tech 7 will perform in HO. I’m just giving you my take. Just something to think about. It would be nice to hear some other uses experiences with this pack in N scale.
