Checking in - proud owner of a pro purchased from Cointaker while at the AWESOME new pinball festival PinBrew - this show is going to be a powerhouse for years to come.

So went to install the jbl stage 810 and the length of the screws (assuming these are fin or spiral fin shank screws) are not long enough to receive the lock nuts.

No issue with this subwoofer in any other stern I own. Anyone else have this issue?

#237-5957-00
#6-32 x 1-3/16 inch steel spiral fin shank screw uses to secure pop bumper bracket.

By my math, that will give me 11mm height inside the cabinet. Anyone ever replace these before? I'm afraid that hammering them out will cause tear out in the plywood.

In case anyone was following - they changed the thickness of the plywood used for the bottom of the cabinet - 12.7mm on IMDN and SW, 19.05mm on AIQ.

I would have never thought to buy one but the Cointaker backglass lighting kit is awesome. It is dynamic and really makes the artwork come alive. I'm going to pick up a kit for Star Wars and Iron Maiden now.

I recently purchased an AIQ from them (at Pin Brew, such a great show) and it was pre-installed.

Same goes for their 48v flasher under cabinet lighting kit - would never think to buy one before this but when you get a multiball and the shaker is rocking, the balls are flying and the RGB LEDs under the cabinet are flashing in sync it is pretty cool.

There is a setting to adjust the shaker - not sure if this controls intensity or just how often it is used. I know you can adjust the weights to allow for a smoother operation, so I am assuming with a little google-fu or someone chiming in here you could figure this out.

I love mine.

Looked at marcos and couldn't find any keychain plastics (goody bags stay sealed on my games).

So decided to make a couple of my own.

I just wanted to chime in and say how much we love this game. It gets so many plays every day. The shot geometry, flow, and rules are superb.

I know each new pinball machine brought home has a honeymoon period... I just don't see us growing tired of this one.

I think I've put only 20 games total on rick and morty since we started our Stern pinball buying spree in February.

It is also nice to see the little improvements in features and construction of the cabinet. I hope they keep these changes moving forward.

Special topper mode is available once all gems collected.
