Quoted from BrianJ1337:holy hell I’m dumb. Thank you. Didn’t want to force anything.
Mine were shining right in my eyes when they would turn and I was so pissed.
"Who designed these spots to shine right in my eyes? Are you supposed to be five feet tall?!"
Glad I was alone complaining and when I figured out to pivot them up

maybe we can get a special forum flair (not so bright) lol.
Ok we’ll still waiting on a fix for my magic spinner. Played a game today testing the topper and it did work as should so it’s intermittent for sure.
Quoted from Jamesays:Hey I was going to put wd40 on my spinner glad I found the triFlo 1st
I’ve never had to grease a spinner before and waiting on stern to get back to me with a fix if there is one before I start tweaking things too much unnecessarily.
When it’s working properly it’s so awesome.

Well then you'll really love the GnR thread. Lots more dumb people over there. 
Quoted from Jamesays:Lol,I actually like it because of all the great advice.
I like it cuz we are likely a bunch of old farts who love our LZ pin!

I'm just about 40.. Am I really old?? :O
Zeppelin is my favorite band but that's because I was raised by hippies.

Led Zeppelin has been my favourite band since before you were born . 
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Yup. 40 is the new 60
after my time in the military I know some 60 year olds in better health.

Well you seem like you have good taste friend!
Quoted from Lermods:Something is really fishy with the ratings. Last week I think maybe Wednesday or Thursday, there were 186 total ratings across the three LZ models. Then I think maybe it was Friday or somewhere close to that when I looked it jumped to 228 ratings. Since then, not a single new rating. So, in a really small window, we get 42 new ratings, but then nothing since. It’s manipulated big time.
Plus, I don’t even see any new comments associated with that jump in ratings.
The bogus ratings started flowing in as soon as it was publicly #1.
People got butthurt and started down voting it because that is what an intelligent mature adult does. ( sarcasm)
Quoted from beelzeboob:Well then you'll really love the GnR thread. Lots more dumb people over there.
Downvotes from the people you would expect. I rest my case.
Quoted from beelzeboob:Downvote from GravitaR. I rest my case.
I can see that it wouldn't appeal to everyone and therefore some won't score it very high but anyone who gives this machine under 7.5 is a tool. It may not be perfect but it is a blast.
Quoted from Morhaus:I will note that you don't see LZ/Stern hommies rating the GNR at a 3.x.
Just like the music we are more refined and intelligent

Look how many people say they dont care for maidens music but still rate the game high.I have grown to enjoy the music on Maiden.When I was younger I didnt care for Maiden because we had so much to choose from,Glad I didnt wear it out now its still fresh to me and better than most available crap today.I rated my LE from my perspective so its a high 9 .I save 10 because theres always room for improvement on anything

talking about my zepp rating by the by

Depends, the artwork on the premium for many is what cost it points and honestly one of the few places I dinged it in score. But my weighted rankings have theme and cab art set fairly low. I love the premium artwork personally which is what sold me honestly.
Quoted from Morhaus:I will note that you don't see LZ/Stern hommies rating the GNR at a 3.x.
Yea.. I haven't played GnR yet so I won't rate until I do. Those guys rating zep must have it based off a youtube video or some twitch stream OR they're insane to rate it so low. I will say not too happy about my spinner being broke so quickly but when it works it's great.
Quoted from LeMansFan:How does one go about disabling the spinner? Something in the settings, or more involved? I wouldn't mind doing that to mine until I get the replacement parts from Stern.
I'm not a pro, and I might have overdone it or did it wrong, but I made the following changes under Featured adjustments to stop my EM spinner mode.
#42 Yes (motor disabled)
#45 Yes (e-magic diverted disabled)
#15 Extra Hard (don't need)

I spent some significant time with it this past weekend and rated it at a 5 or 6 I believe. It is my honest rating.

Did you make this or is it available for purchase ? Looks good!

If I remember correctly, months ago I ordered some flipper caps from 'top-notchtargetshields' and they included some free LZ target stickers in the shipment. Just cut one down to size - may have to try another as it's not perfect. I'll look when I get home after work and see if I have an extra for ya...

new fanboy rating look at their rating history ,says it all.
Finished installing the complete Pinwoofer system last night in my LE. Sounds incredible. Definitely worth the upgrade.

Hayfarmer did someone light your avatar on fire. It took me awhile to notice it was you but for the blue op boarder

Is there a reason why the post rubber is down?

Damn - Didn’t even notice...I’ll make it flush with the other one. Thank you buddy!

I was going to mention that but I thought he must have known or did it for a reason.
All my missed Icarus shots must of just knocked it down a bit. Surprised I wasn't getting airballs all the time!
Is there a conversion kit to put in 5.25 inch speakers in the back box?
I looked at pinwoofer set but the pyle speakers are not what I am looking for. I think I can get mich better sound with different speakers.
Also can you just swap out the speakers and sub or do you need an amplifier?

I have the same question. I’ve been looking at clipper fidelity 10” sub woofer kit with 5” back box speakers. Uses the factory sound board and under $200. Would love to hear some reviews from someone that’s gone this route. Also want to light my speakers when I upgrade them so would love to know compatibility etc too

Your best bang for the buck will be a powered sub - there's enough factory amplifier to drive a sub but I think a powered sub sounds noticibly better. A change in back box speakers is nice but it doesn't blow you away in sound difference.
I added a Klipsch reference 12" sub with isolation pads to each of my pins and I'm very happy with the results. HUGE difference. Metallica sounds great as is, but LZ still needs some tweaking. Did the V shape in the EQ but still sounds kinda thin at times. May upgrade to 5.25" down the road to see if that helps.

You'd be amazed at the PinWoofer setup. And the pyles sound great. Much better sound than Kenwoods that come in le games. You won't hear much better sound without an amp. I've had pinwoofers in 4 games now, zero issues. Highly recommend.

Those pyle speakers I can get for $40 Canadian about $30 usd. They can't be that good for that price. I know price isn't everything but if they sell them that cheap the can't be great quality... some reviews say yes some say crap. I would prefer to go with something I have used before like Polk infinity or Rockford Fosgate.
Has anyone used any other speakers than pyle? Any suggestions?

Kenwoods are more$$, sound was noticeably worse.

I don't sell the 5.25" speakers....but I do have the 5.25" speaker plates to mount them.
