    has anyone used a full Flipper Fidelity kit from a WPC 95 and installed into a Stern Spike 2?

    Quoted from hawknole:

    I installed the Goldwood LE cabinet speaker in my GZ Premium and the Kenwood’s with the SpaceCoast adapter in the backbox and then adjusted both speaker sets to the 4 ohm. While this is an improvement from the crap stock paper speakers in range, Godzilla needs more bass, even with tweaking the EQ. So my next step is to test my Infinity powered sub with a connection off the CN5. Looks like TinyBlackDog has provided the mouser links needed so ordering up.
    I had a set of FF speakers that I put in my Rush. 4” 8 ohms in the backbox and an 8” 4 ohm in the cabinet. Again an improvement from the stock speakers. While Rush does not need the bass in my opinion like Godzilla does I will do CN5 plugs for both machines as I have a Polk powered sub available for testing.[quoted image]

    Silly question, how did you mount the Goldwood LE speakers in the premium? The mounting on the premium is different

    Quoted from davegauth:

    Pretty sure the mounting is the same. Stern only bolts the goldwood in utilising the same mounting that is in the pro and premium cabinets.

    They are not the same.

    Quoted from davegauth:

    Would love to know more about this and see sine pics showing the differences.

    I'm guessing it's already been mentioned in the thread somewhere, an adapter is required, Spacecoast makes one:
