SoundTraxx Speaker Gaskets are designed to create an airtight seal between the speaker and its enclosure, helping maximize bass response, volume, and clarity from DCC sound decoders. Even a high-quality speaker can sound weak without proper sealing, making speaker gaskets a critical component in any sound installation.
Why Speaker Gaskets Matter
Speaker gaskets prevent air leaks around the speaker frame, allowing the cone to move air efficiently. A properly sealed speaker produces stronger low frequencies, cleaner midrange sound, and reduced distortion—especially noticeable in steam tenders, diesel shells, and sound-equipped rolling stock.
While gaskets provide the seal, they work best when paired with proper enclosures or speaker baffles. Together, these components form a sealed acoustic chamber that significantly improves sound quality compared to an unsealed speaker.
