I've seen a Zephyr run 10 trains half with sound on a 25 x 30 layout. I can't see you needing more than a 5 am booster. The rest of "power" districts is wiring and protection.

There's a decent article on power districts and boosters in the August 2010 Model Railroader. Not running DCC and not being an electrical wizard, I even understood it.
