I got a couple of sugar cube speakers for SBS4DCC.com, my question is, if I put two of these into the locomotive, do I wire in series or parallel? I'm assuming parallel, but I've been wrong more than once today already.

I'm assuming parallel, but I've been wrong more than once today already. Depends on the decoder. Loksound is optimized for a 4 ohm load, so you can (should) wire them in parallel. Any other sound decoder requires no less than an 8 ohm load, so you should wire those in series. When wiring in parallel, be sure you have them in phase (+ to + and - to -) or the sound will be greatly diminished. Mark.
