Quoted from John-Floyd:

Pittance to you guys I know, but I just had my best game and snagged a 33m jackpot on November Rain! It was a shit game and I was on my 3rd ball and went into a song. I had a solid jackpot of 14m but decided to push it one more time and I nailed the 2nd one! My new Grand Champion score is now 37.9m and I’m thrilled. What a fun game!

Quoted from mikepmcs:

COOLING FANS:
If anyone was thinking of getting a multi USB hub and using the USB port on that board near the coin door (left side) to power 5- 5v fans. It doesn't work. They all spin but won't get up to any sort of wind producing speed. FAIL.
Back to the drawing board.

But what is this blue/blue open tap for? It reads 14.1vdc.

Quoted from Enron64:

Hello all I am in the club next week with an se. My question is can I ad a shaker to this game? I know the le comes with one but the se does not. My dialed in se came with a shaker and so did my wonka LE. Is it just like stern games where you can add a shaker after the fact? I need that shaker for live and let die !

Quoted from Vespula:

Anyone know how many SE were actually built and sold?

Quoted from Vespula:Congrats! Another SE arrives.
Three's company, as they say.
(Unless you bought yours from the other two guys on here with SEs).
Shaker would be a good add on... along with pinwoofer.

Quoted from Ecw0930:

I was just going to say all of this! Vespula do you have an SE? I thought it was me and like one other person. And now this one! Yay!
Also.... Please do not get your hopes up on RUSH and compare it to GNR. To me personally, it's not a fun pin. Sometimes it's ok and a fun shooter but most of the time it just isn't fun for me. I am however not a big fan like you are. I hope you get a chance and so enjoy it tho!

Quoted from etr104:

Is there a way on GNR to disable the "Todays Top Scores" thing? I can understand the benefit of this feature on location, but on my Home Use Only game, where I might have time to play 4-5 games a day, almost every game I play is a "Todays Top Score." It just doesn't serve a purpose. Unless I set an actual all time top score, I don't wanna hear about it! lol
I'm just curious if there was a menu option that I'm missing.

Yes in the high score adjustments settings you can turn it off

Steve,
Can you answer my questions about 3 posts back about 3.5mm and 14v?
Please and Thank you.

Mike

Quoted from Pinballomatic:

Quoted from KingBW:

It's near the very bottom of the list of settings under the high score adjustments. I turn them on when I have parties. There's also a "minimum score" needed to be in the top scores of the day. I bump those up a bit for parties in case the first few games people play have really bad scores.

Quoted from CoolCatPinball:

As far as an official OK from JJP goes (regarding the 14v plug), I wouldn't hold your breath. My guess is they probably don't recommend using any plug in the machine for anything other than it's intended purpose. Giving the OK could potentially open them up for liability should a board or other component fail after installing the "mod".

Quoted from Vespula:

I think his question was simply "what's it used for?"
Disclosure of his intentions is of no consequence to JJP by just answering that question. Although it did muddy the water a bit...

Quoted from altan:

I don't have a pony in this and feel people should do whatever they want to their pins.
With that said, the OP of this topic did write "I'm thinking of using it for fans considering my inevitable voltage drop using 2 rectifier diodes in the harness I'm building."

Quoted from mikepmcs:

pinball_keefer can you or anyone else tell me what this spare 3.5mm is for in the top of my backbox?
Also, is that 14volts off this plug (pictured) strictly for the topper?

Quoted from mikepmcs:

I'm just looking for an answer to a 3.5mm I found dangling in the head and a blue connector that happens to carry 14v. What are they for?
Thanks
r/
Mike

Quoted from mikepmcs:

Found out what the 3.5mm is for. Turns out it's not extra. My soundbar isn't hooked up at all. Found the power plug hiding as well. My guess it was unhooked due to hum or noise. Ground loop isolator on the way and then I'll hook it up.

Quoted from Mattyk:

Stern running circles around JJP when it comes to code updates

Quoted from zaphX:

Assuming we are talking CE, also makes sure the L/R cables from the soundbar speakers to the amp board are correct.
They each go to the furthest plug, not the nearest.

Quoted from screaminr:

Just spent tonight installing pin woofer GT amplifier , going step-by-step from YouTube video of Hurry Up Pinball .
I've been putting it off for almost a year but I have people coming over tomorrow for the grand final and thought now is the time .
I didn't change over the tweeters or the subwoofer .
I couldn't find the nuts and washers for the subwoofer , I'm not saying I didn't get them but I looked through all the boxes and looked everywhere and couldn't find them and I also couldn't find the double.sided.tape.for the board that goes in the back box , but I had some double-sided tape so that wasn't an issue .
So I got it all done , and following the video , I set all the dials to 12 position and the gain to the 2-3 position .
It sounded horrible . But I thought it just needs adjusting , so I spent about an hour fucken around with all the settings and it was just awful , really staticky , tinny & scratchie .
I double checked all the connections were correctly positioned and pushed in fimly and it was grounded properly .
But no luck , it was totally unplayable .
I haven't pulled it all out , but I disconnected everything and put it back to way it was . Now the sound is good again .
Half reason I got it was because I thought the GT amplifier had a line out for an external subwoofer . So how do you connect it ?
On the Hobbit you could just plug in the subwoofer and it was brilliant .
Not sure what I will do now , if I swap over the speakers and connect an external sub or just do the sub .
I'm not saying pin woofer make a crap product , lots of people recommended it , so either something is wrong with my amp or more likely I've done something wrong , I just don't know what .
Looks like 500 bucks down the drain but hey that's Pinball [quoted image]

Quoted from glpinball:

I've installed 2 of them so far and they were both brilliant. But I also installed the speakers as well. I think without the speakers you can't give it a fair shake.

Quoted from Eskaybee:

External sub + tweak sound settings in menu for the win for me.
In 2 months it’ll be 2 years ownership. Crazy!

Quoted from Vespula:

First, all dials at 12 is def wrong. There are recommendations on PW website and around here but you need to play with it for your room too.
The adjustments are very sensitive. the different between 12 and 12:30 oclock, for example are very noticeable.
I just looked at my settings:
the treble is 2oclock
the BBox vol was about max, but maybe a hair back from max,
the bass vol was max, and
bass freq was about 1 oclock as I have a polk sub (which is using a 1/8inch to Stereo RCA output plugged into the 1/8 female output on the GT.
Gain at 2oclock.
vol at 12oclock. ymmv.
Oh, and the machine volume... thats a big one... normal play on my game Master Volume is 15, if I feel like rocking a bit more, which is most times is 16 and then as my ears go deaf I might bump it to 17 which is as much as I can handle.
And the settings in your game are equally important. You can see this From
https://pinwoofer.com/blog/pinwoofer-jersey-jack-pinball-guns-n-roses-amplifier-settings/
GT Amplifier:
System Menu
Music Mix 60
Speech Mix 75 (default)
Fanfare Mix 60
FX Mix 75 (default)
Which is what mine is at.
I additionally increased my VOLUME EFFECT INTENSITY (default is 1) which kicks up the Song volume more when it starts. I went to 2 so when a song starts, it gets noticeably louder which I think is helpful to rock out properly on this pin when song starts.

Quoted from PinWoofer:

WOW, great summary - nice of you to jump in Vespula !

Quoted from PinWoofer:

Having the Bbox Vol at max seems a bit high to me unless you are running an external sub.

Quoted from PinWoofer:

Oh no screaminr !
