I finally went out and bought one of the Bachman engines that comes with factory sound.
I am quite impressed with both the sound and the engines running performance. Great sound compared to my BLI units from a few years ago. The locomotives running characteristics are also good, excellent slow speed control.
These units with the factory sound installed are obviously a superior DCC decoder than the Bachmann standard DCC only decoder engines.
Having upgraded a couple of engines to DCC and sound I also think their pricing is reasonable.
Will Bachmann be selling the Sound decoders directly to the public in the future?
