You see a city, where the streets are bustling with townspeople going to work or stopping in local businesses. Older vehicles cruise down the main drag and honk at their neighbor passing by, while a train chugs along the track. What would a city be without sound?

The new Just Plug® Sound System brings any scene on your layout, diorama or project to life. It works well with more than model railroad layouts. The Just Plug® Sound System also makes dioramas, holiday displays, school projects and tabletop games a realistic, immersive sound experience.

This complete system is easy to install. Just like the Just Plug® Lighting System you simply plug and play!

It all starts with the Sound Hub, which is the backbone of the system. Simply connect the Power Supply to the Sound Hub and then insert a Sound Card. We will provide a dozen background and active sounds, as well as the tools to create your own unique sounds. Then plug in the speakers and you are ready for their project to have sound!

One Sound Hub can control up to 4 individual sounds. You can run multiple Sound Hubs off of one Power Supply by connecting them together. The Sound Hub also has a cover to keep it clean from dust and push buttons and volume controls for each, individual sound.

There are also three different types of speakers. Depending on placement and the type of sound, Micro and Mini Speakers are available. Modelers can also create a special sound effects, such as an airplane flying overhead moving from one side to another using Stereo Room Speakers.

Five kinds of triggers control when sounds activate. There are Motion Sensor, Push Button and Timer Triggers, as well as a Magnetic Track Trigger (great for train crossings) and even a Remote Control that allows modelers to activate a few or all of the sounds.

To create a more realistic experience, you can start with subtle background sounds like birds or the chatter of a city’s downtown. then add more active sounds like a fire truck or church bells. You can start with subtle background sounds like birds or water from a babbling brook. Then, you can create an active sound like a fire truck with a magnetic track trigger and a micro speaker or church bells with a push button trigger and mini speaker. There are endless ways to customize sound on a layout.

Each Sound Card has its own trigger and speaker port on the Sound Hub. You can activate a few or all of the sounds with a Remote Control.

With additional tools and accessories that work easily and seamlessly together, the Sound System truly has it all to bring your layout to life.
