Quoted from turbo20lbs:No. Pretty much never bother. Can rarely hear the games and sound is very important to me. The ones at my house play so much better and are so much cleaner.
I just got my first pin, and realized how true this is. I have never played pinball in a quiet environment until now, and was surprised at all the audio going on in my Fire!
I'm still an active location player, as I only have room for a few pins. Hoping Silverball Saloon opens soon as it is 5 mins from me - quiet a few location play options in Seattle now.
