Caveat: Have not done one...!
However, I recall that MR had an article on putting sound in a small switcher like this. Significantly more involved than a simple decoder-only install. IIRC, some of the cab space was used either for the decoder or the speaker.
You might want to see if there's a tutorial and/or experience you can draw on for a sound install before you decide. On the other hand, it's still a great engine even without sound.
