those ramps i don't think have changed in some time, those corners and such are supposed to be addressed. Much of the game still seems like placeholder stuff. the cabinet hasn't changed since the very first day. I think there is still a ton of work to be done.

from the topl discussion, looks like none of the local collectors wanted anything to do with this, because they were looking for free machines with nothing in return except a headache. I wonder how many starburst can possibly pull together.... I'm thinking they'll fall far short of their 100...

Well, you'd have to bring it to thunder bay :-). I'm sure not a lot of pins up there, hence the premium.

nice group photo. I spotted Barry in there. There are probably others I know but there are so many faces your eyes kind of glaze over after staring at it.

I'll go check it out, why not? Just a subway ride away for me. the discussion on the topl list was kind of negative, but I think it's just because they are using the pinball machines as a promotional device for their play, and not because they love pinball and want to promote pinball. Yeah, I...

I switched to the speaker wire inputs and the sound is cleaner. For Tron guys (looks like a lot of us), where do you have your Low Pass set to?

I'm not a graphics guy, but I wanted a topl shirt, so I made an updated logo using a Tron Legacy font so it looked modern. I also like understated shirts, so there is just the logo on the front, no big slogans or anything. The prices on that site are not marked up, I made these for myself but...

thanks for the tips. This seems easily remedied, just use speaker wire from the game to the sub input instead.

The theme is not good. It almost feels like people are buying it IN SPITE of the theme, not because of it. They can debate all day about how this transcends pinball and women and children will be drawn to it, but lets face facts here... all the users here are all cut from a VERY similar cloth...

just hooked mine up. Holy Bass batman! on the Quorra multiball there's a kickdrum along with the synth line, who knew?! I'll play with the settings more later. All I did was take an old rca cable I had, cut the end off, split the wires and attach them to the cabinet subwoofer with clips and...

I'm going to use alligator clips to connect to the cabinet woofer. I generally don't do permanent mods. I made space to run the wire out of the cabinet by unscrewing the cabinet woofer, making space, then screwing the woofer back. In the past when I've experimented with this, I just tied the...

This is the mixer I have that I used to use for mixing microphone and ipod, but will work for this: http://www.amazon.com/Behringer-502-XEN ... m_sbs_MI_1 I can't recall what I paid for mine back in the day, but its $40 US there, so just shows you they can be had for cheap. No mixer is...

you're welcome. I've been thinking of a sub for a while, this is the best price I've seen. It's funny how this IS one of the best bangs for the buck mods going. I would think if you ran too many inputs into it, at some point it would just become muddy, from trying to generate too much bass...

Well, all I know is what I saw at Nick's, and he had 6 games running at the same time. AC/DC was thumping the whole time, his AFM was hooked up to it, so all the martian blasts and explosions were coming through, etc. That's the point of a mixer, to mix down to a single channel. Think of a...

well, mixers are one of those things you can probably find somewhere for free, or cheap used. I have an old 2 channel one that I'm going to use to run 2 games into the subwoofer to start. The subwoofer's placement in the room doesn't matter, so it makes sense to just mix multiple games...

there's also free shipping on it. Nick Angel had 6 of his pins connected to 1 subwoofer, through a mixer. I was thinking about doing something similar.

running a line from Tron to it. maybe the others.

I just bought one of these: http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/ ... 9cba32en02 Regular price $250, on sale till May 2 for $99.

Congrats, Sunfox, I've been watching you fight the good fight on pinside forever. Now your day is coming :).

i have a membership, I've been to the exhibit a couple of times. There is an EM machine running, can't recall the name. They also had a BOP on display but was powered off both times I was there. It may never be on, since it was part of a "museum" of classics that were mostly dead games with no...
