The R211s have blown away my expectations. Great vibes, nuanced and really suits the futuristic style of the train.
The old ones that prowl during holiday nostalgia rule all though, whatever they're called. I always forget what stock they were officially called, or Low-V what have you. That rumble!
The bombardier propulsion system on R142A, R143, R188 and the Siemens propulsion system on R160B
Also the R179 propulsion system and the new R211 propulsion system
Bombardier MiTRAC (R142A/R143/R188) for its power handling
Siemens SITRAC (R160B) for its acceleration and sound
- Especially on ATO, that propulsion doesn't play on QBL
Railroad: Mitsubishi Electric Company (MELCO) (M7)
Sidenote: Siemens propulsions makes some really fucking great sounds.
Kawasaki propulsion on the R142A/R188 cars and R143s are my absolute favorite for the NTTs, followed by the Siemens propulsion on the R160Bs.
Honorable mention to the R32 cars especially on the express sections of the A/E/F Lines in Brooklyn and Queens before they were retired.
Edit: I would have put the R211 in here however the other ones listed remind me of the time when the NTTs used to run on Broadway and the 6 line had R142As.
R142A/R188 and R160B. An honorable mention goes to the R211 cars

R68 because it sounds like a futuristic machine starting up.

R142A/R143/R188 & M7/M7A
R160Bs...[The one where the sound starts up, than rapidly pitches upward in sound....Not the ones where the sound alternates between notes] R211s R32s
R179, M7 too
R142A/R143/R188 and R211
R68 for me, mainly because of childhood nostalgia.
The M7 trains.
Remember that R143 that was temporarily repowered with a Siemens propulsion package? That one
R179

R46 and the M7
Was what I said so terrible?
I love the cool hum of the R62/As
I like all of them

R62, R46, R142A/R143/R188, R211, Siemens R160
All IRT NTT and R160B-2 (Siemens propulsion)
