Answering in reverse order... The whole DCC market is small dollars as far as 'consumer electronics' go. And since the dollars are small, the volumes are small...
I don't run sound, but as I understand it, the DT400 should give you all the functions you need as wel as giving you a dual throttle hand held. Be careful of...
