Where is the best place to buy FF speaker kit?

I've bought mine directly from flipperfidelity.com. Only positive things to say about it.

www.flipperfidelity.com The owner Michael is cool.

Got it thanks!

Ps. Is Michael east coast or west coast?

East coast, but he ships cross country.

You want me to reveal my source?

I posted both the video and configuration in another thread recently. Here is where the discussion started.

Feel free to use the video and/or configuration file any way you see fit.

The beta8 version you sent me seems solid and worthy of a release.

Anyone know when the Eli wire mod will be in stock on PBL?

Sorry I meant Pinbits.

East coast, PA. Congrats on your Tron.

East coast (near Reading, PA). He will also be at EXPO next week.

i just wanted to say "sorry" to my tron because i haven't been playing her much lately......

the reason why is that i got a new pin over the weekend in a trade deal. that new pin is a WH20! really lovin the whitewater so far. cabinet has a little wear, but the pf is in nice condition, some of the ramps were replaced too, white rubbers installed, topper is original. it truly is a awesome pin!

thanks for the props brother.... just wish I had mo' room. can only jam so many cades and pins in a 2 car garage. this wh2o is still nowhere as clean as that minty fresh spidey that was posted on here recently

I hear that! I'm maxed out at 4 in my house right now, it sucks. I haven't decided if I want to put some in my garage yet or not

Made a vid of Tron with the clear disc rubber installed to warn you guys that this one is way to sticky and will bash the machine up. Thought i should post here on this topic as well:

Wow, that's fast! I wouldn't mind playing a couple games like that... on somebody else's machine

I was so amazed by your integration of the mystery wheel device that it took me a while to notice the shadow!

gracias

Ironman War Machine Kick-back has nohting on that spinning disk...wow does it throw the ball

I don't consider the clear disc to be a problem. In fact, after watching that vid, i'm going to buy it right now!

Bring on the pain

Nope, it's broken, sorry man.

Email Pam at Pinbits and show her the pic. I had a plastic protector break on my Tron and she replaced it for no charge.

I'm sure Pam will replace it for you if you send her an email... she has always been helpful when I've needed something.

Mind if I chime in? I might repeat some the same things that Centerflank said.
I've been playing TRON quite consistently for about a year and it's my favorite machine, by far. I've been to Portal about 20 times now. My strategy has kind of evolved over this time and I'm still looking for ways to perfect it. So far, this is what I have found to be best.

At first, I used to plunge into Flynn's arcade for the skill shot and the mystery award and then focus on getting light cycle and CLU at the same time. I then would go for everything else. Instead I now plunge to get GEM until she's solidly lit.

1) Focus on Gem and Quorra. I have found that I acquire Flynn and Zuse by accident during Quorra mode while making sure to get all 4 balls out into play by constantly hitting the recognizer. Also, you can do a quick plunge hoping to get GEM with each new ball but that's pretty tricky because you're focusing on the playfield. ****If you can activate Light Cycle, CLU, and Quorra all at the same time then you're going to rack up a solidly lit ladder fast

2) Look for opportunities to hit TRON after the ball rolls over the ZEN switch for DOUBLE SCORING.

3) Try to make every single shot count! Getting a little lazy and slapping the ball around just sets yourself up for disaster.

4) I try to not hit the recognizer directly because it has drained on me down the center too many times to count.

5) Disc war is usually the last thing I go for. And, during the end of the mode I try to hang on to one ball with the left flipper in case all the others drain. That way, I'm all setup to hit into the scoop for SOS. I've been burned on this sooooooo many times (not reaching SOS) so that's why I always keep an extra ball handy.

6) Study this breakdown of the game. It has very valuable info. http://www.pinballnews.com/games/tron/index6a.html

I hope this helps.

I've had trouble coming up with a good strategy for Tron, I will give this a shot. Thanks!

Strategy? Play the crap out of it until its your b*tch. Then play it some more.

I still don't have a big problem with Gem, it's that dadgum LCMB. I feel like I must be missing something because it's rarely mentioned. Tips for the challenged?!?

Btw that broken plastic stinks. I just went through this with a safecracker topper that arrived in many pieces At least yours is still made!

the gem shot isnt too bad on the pro.... but HOT DAMN its a bitch of a shot on the le's.

Does anyone have a TRON that looks like this and if so >>

Is it normal for the metal to protrude from the bottom of the ball launch pad guide onto the play field?

Has anyone noticed it making a difference in how the ball reacts when it travels up?

Has anyone pulled it back from the play field to see if there is a difference?

Why does he ask?? Mine was like that NIB. A few weeks ago I moved it so it is no longer on the play field. Recently (it may just be me or a bad coil) it seems like when the ball (s) get auto launched, about 20 percent of them never make it around the loop and they actually seem to be hitting the divider from the inner and outer ramps and come down towards the plungers.

If I manually launch the ball, there is no issue.

Yes mine looks like that. I rolled the ball along the wall to see if it would hit that metal piece and it doesn't. So all is good. Plus if you LED the shit out of your Tron you won't even notice that piece of metal

LMAO! Sounds good then...

Thanks

I'm going to ask a question here because it feels like the best place to ask it:

Does Tron Pro feel like a gimped game compared to the LE? And are all these super modded machines the Pro table or the LE table?? They look gorgeous and I'm considering investing on a Pro if all goes according to plan!

I don't own a LE, but I DO own the PRO and LOVE THE GAME!

From what I have seen over the last few months of buying my TRON, most of the modded machines you are seeing is a mix of both LE and PRO machines.

You can start by telling the difference by looking at images of the LE = Fiber optic lighting under plastic ramps + Moving Recognizer + Drop TRON Targets

The FIBER kit is offered as a MOD for the PRO, so it can get a little confusing at 1st but you will start to be able to tell the difference.

BUT probably the BIGGEST way you can tell the difference between a LE and a PRO > Next to impossible to buy a LE model!

So that basically says that only 400 of "us" have the LE, and the rest have a PRO. Not gimpy at all

I play a Pro at the arcade sometimes and it doesn't feel gimpy. It doesn't have mods tho so it does feel sort of bare bones. All modded up I'd say the experience is comparable.

This is the lovefest thread, so we love all things Tron Can't go wrong either way

I can't convince my wife that an LE is worth it ($10k+ is silly to me). But she'll go for a Pro if I can get it for a fair price. I'll mod it over time! I guess I just wanted to make sure that before I start my hunt, the lack of Daft Punk multiball, fiber optics, drop targets, etc. detract from the game. It's really between this and an Avengers machine, ha. Saying that in the Tron lovefest <3

I think the Pro is the better choice at todays LE prices for sure!!

Are you kidding me???
If it is between those two get the Tron for Sure!!! Avengers pro is terrible IMO.

Avengers?? Really...of ALL the games you could possibly buy?? Avengers is 3rd last out of all the games ever made hahahah ...imo

Check out the Eli fiber mod that's being offered at pinbits. I've seen it in person and it's sick. I love my tron pro! That said the LE is an amazing machine for sure! The pure gameplay between tron pro and tron LE is probably the most similar out of any release from the Stern LE/Pro model. The drop targets on the LE are very cool, but don't forget the stand ups generally make it easier to ricochet the gem shot off of them.

Unless you have played Avengers and absolutely have to own it, I would highly recommend the Tron pro over any version the the Avengers machine: Pro, premium or LE (sorry Avengers owners). Good luck either way!

My plan was to find options and then get to play the two. There's a place about an hour from me that I could go to play them both. If I can get a Tron Pro for a reasonable price, that's the route I'm going to go. But right now, they're mostly sitting around $5k, and I'd like to go a bit less.

Fingers are crossed, because Tron is my dream machine.
