Stern, 2013Quoted from Scott8806:I reached out to the guy and he's going to ask the guy that had it I'm going to try and trace the lines tonight a d see if I can figure out it out was just hoping someone else would have had whatever this is lol
hopefully its for interactive lighting
Those boards are stock on the LED Pro models, mine has them too. They must be for anti-ghosting or flickering of the inserts due to using LEDs from the factory.

Hey man.I know where Belle Chase is! I used to live in Gretna!
Quoted from Scott8806:I guess there is nowhere to get the sparky helmet El wire from anymore I had it on my first metallica
Yes sadly it’s no where to be found,,, Mezel Mods had it for a number of years,,, they pop up on Ebay off and on , but sell immediately.
Quoted from Scott8806:Yea I should have kept mine last time anyone have that cemetery mod from them I'm starting over again modding first time was definitely easier
If your talking about the flashing cemetery mod thats over the drop targets, Mezel Mods still has that
It looks like something to reduce LED flicker, for a game that came with incandescent originally (as all the wooden backbox versions did).
Quoted from Scott8806:Yes it's a 2015 build date someone told me that's it's the led version they all have that I installed flipper fidelity but might have to go in the settings and mess with I some not hearing a big improvement yet
I would highly recommend the Pinwoofer Super Kit instead of the Flipper Fidelity Speaker upgrade. Not that the Flipper Fidelity speakers aren’t ok , but ok is about the only sound up grade you’ll get out of them… If you want Crystal Clear Sound , and nice deep base ,,, get the Pinwoofer Kit ,,, it’s a must for Met or any other music pin , or any pin for that matter
I personally like to install an external sub with the upgraded backbox speakers. Too much bass coming from the cabinet speaker will make things vibrate. I have a number of external subs for my collection and really think its the best way to go.
Quoted from Scott8806:I'm not hearing much bass at all though I have to turn the machine up over halfway to hear hardly anything
Exactly. This is why having the cabinet speaker with a separate amp or external sub helps. This way you can independently control the bass volume.
Quoted from Scott8806:Damn I already have it on mine
I had Flipper Fidelity in my Met with an external powered subwoofer and the sound was ok. I switched to Pinwoofer and now the sound is amazing. Night and day difference. I even unhooked the external sub as it is just not necessary with Pinwoofer. I am sure Flipper Fidelity are good speakers, but the Pinwoofer amps make all the difference.
I have a Pinwoofer Kit in both my Met and ACDC and the only things that vibrate are my windows,,,, and dishes and glasses in my kitchen

Hey that's fair. I'm sure you are getting lots of bass from that pinwoofer..... Here is the speaker I'm using for my external sub......

Ok.... you win...actually that would be sweet !!
Quoted from ralphs007:Could someone tell me what the red light special in the outlanes awards you?
I see it a lot,but I never drained in the outlane that had the red light special lit.
You can pick in the menu what special awards. .. on mine it's an extra ball.

Default setting is usually free game.
Quoted from jawjaw:Default setting is usually free game.
Thanks,I'm glad I didn't drain to find that out. The only thing I hate about Metallica is the noise the machine makes when you win a free game! It made me jump out of my skin when it want off. 
I disabled that the first week I had the game.

I love it! Especially when someone isn't expecting it.

The first thing I do on any Stern game is to replace that awful shriek noise with a real knocker.
Quoted from Scott8806:My right back panel the flasher socket came apart trying to find a part number to order another one. They have 4 flashers back there and now with 3 it does look good
Looks like this one will work.

I'm waiting to see if kawydud can make a kit... I've done that with all of my Spike games though.
Quoted from Scott8806:I guess there is nowhere to get the sparky helmet El wire from anymore I had it on my first metallica
I posted one in this thread a few pages back. Made my own. Was super easy. I 3D designed and printed the helmet adapter and just bought the EL wire off Amazon. Was like $9?
Quoted from insight75:So you really are a hay farmer! Nice!
Why would anyone pretend to be a farmer? They'd be crazy! 
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Blue skies, green hay, life is good, metallica on the radio "and nothing else matters"
Pretty cool how it’s all lined up and systematic. Slow n steady wins the race!
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Why would anyone pretend to be a farmer? They'd be crazy!
Totally fair......I don't always think about folks pinsider names.....so that just opened my eyes a bit!
