The stock speaker probably doesn't do it justice. It looks like its going to something like a Beier card or benedini....
I see it has the Panzer project board looks very nice
Something you add to your system or does it come stock in future Taigen releases?

If I remember correctly Taigen is developing a new board that will work with the taigen transmitter and with hobby grade ones. Also it comes with an extra sound board where we can change sounds. This extra sound board will be compatible with the new open panzer board.
I wonder how much it will be. Hope it is cheap but I dont think it will be due to this hobby is more expensive day by day.

My thoughts exactly...there's dealers on eBay selling the new HL duel-sound system for £80
...for a little extra you can get clarks or IBU's which give you programmable sounds and Tamiya compatable battling...

Interesting side by side comparison, yes they are similar...but are they identical? It depends where Clark got his sounds from, and if it was a public source then it may well be the same place that the Taigen got theirs from. Sure they could have copied them across, they are only .wav files, so easy to do. HL did it with the Tamiya sounds for the new RX18. It raises the question, can anyone claim copyright over tank sounds? The sounds themselves come from the tank, they are recordings of something that is in the public domain, so to whom do they belong? Clark has got his sounds on You Tube, so those are in the public domain, and now, so does Taigen?
Elmod stopped anyone copying the sounds on their new boards by encoding them so that they will only play back properly on an Elmod board, though the old .wav sounds can be freely downloaded and used from their site.
