I'm in the process of building a pc for a Pin2K game that is missing the original PC/Monitor/audio amp. I have the new computer/monitor working fine but wondering what my options are regarding getting the audio system to go through the existing speakers. I know the simplest way would be to use a Nucore Audio Amp but these don't seem to be available anywhere. I know there's another option of buying the original Pin2K audio amp and hacking it to include a 3.5mm jack to make it work. -this is likely the way I'll go but for the money I think there must be cheaper an better alternatives? Would it be possible to buy a nice 2.1 PC speaker set and use the sub to drive the speakers that are currently in the game?-or modify the pc speakers to fit into the game? Thanks,

One more question, does anyone know where I can buy replacement head bolts (the kind with sleeves) for attaching the head to the body of a Pin2K game? -There should be four of them alltogether. thanks.

Thanks Nexyss! That's exactly what I was looking for. I just ordeed the amp and should have it early next week. I think I probably have the right Molex connections to make a harness as well. I'll update everyone once I get a chance to test it out.

Now I just need to track down some replacement headbolts.and figure out the best way to mount the new pc and LCD in the head. May try the official LCD bracket although it Mau be easy enough to make something myself. Any tips?

Thanks. Does the 24" line up correctly with the playfield? I've got a 23.5" LCD I could cram to fit but was thinking I'd have to look for a 22" widescreen or a 20" 4:3 to make it look right? I just sent off an email to GLM to inquire about buying the bracket. I've seen other people come up with mounts using angle iron and other materials but the official kit will likely give the most professional looking results. I can use black foam core board to hide any gaps. I ordered the following holder for the CP to strap it to the top of the head.

My PC is just a little Dell Optiplex 755 so this should be more than adequate. I'm still looking for the pivot bushing for mounting the cabinet to the head. Marco appears to be out:

It does look like that Pinball Spare Parts place in Australia has them however, so I just may have to pony up an pay the shipping!

Thanks! I think that's very close to what I need but I believe the Pin2K is quite a bit deeper since it has to go through both cabinets. The one you linked may work in a pinch though? Here's the one I need

Thanks. I'll post back once I get the computer/mount installed and let you know how it works. The 755 is a good little PC and will work fine with Pinbox or Nucore. If you are having problems with autostart try putting the command in twice in the autostart.sh file as mentioned in this thread:

Where's the best place to order new t-molding for the cabinet? My Ep 1 t-molding is pretty beat up. Thanks

Thanks! Just placed an order.

Mine are black as well... I bet yours were replaced. The skirts on RFM tend to get chewed up pretty quickly.

I ran them in my ultrasonic cleaner which did a great job. Just make sure to watch the heat so that they don't melt. I also re-painted the eyes with red acrylic paint before re-installing.

I recently sold my RFM but have a few extra parts for sale.

I have a brand new sheet of pin2k glass. I paid $150 for it from Rob Anthony at MGC a few years back and it still has the protective coating on it. Sold the game and the new buyer didn't want to buy it with the game. Pickup only in Black Earth, WI which is just outside Madison. $150 firm.

I also have a Dell 20" 2007fpb 4:3 LCD screen that is the perfect size for a CRT to LCD conversion on an RFM or SWE1. Preferable to widescreen as it doesn't stretch the image. $50. Pickup only.

Glass is sold pending pickup
