Thanks
I found these from Erbert Puko's but Weichen-Walter looks much better

I've also experimented with the Peco stud strips and my main objection against them is that they generate too much slider noise unless two strips are used side by side to cover every tie space in the track. However, I never found a workable solution centering the strips properly....

W-W seems to be the way to go if you're dealing with just a few turnouts....for the cost of the turnout itself that's a no-go in my book.

You didn't say if you're otherwise running C- or K-track but I simply redesigned my track plan (yard) using only slim L/R K-turnouts and ended up with a more sound and cheaper design.
