Quoted from chuckcasey:

Dude, you’re right. It’s no where to be found but listed on the Stern comparison chart “New CPU mounted line-out audio connector for external amplification”. I hadn’t noticed because I installed a Pinovaters sub-out asap after unboxing. Dang.
Anyone find it ?

Quoted from DragonPin:

Im really confused about the audio line out/headphone connections. The marketing for Iron Maiden stated a line out for hookup to a home audio system.
I dont see any connections on my board?
Did previous Spike systems come with a 3.5mm jack?
Did they downgrade the audio connections on this machine instead of improving them? Its my first Stern machine so I have no basis of comparison

Quoted from gliebig:

Flippers sure are loud. Does that annoy anyone else? It's a pretty f'ing loud/sharp clack clack noise.

Quoted from Gryszzz:

First thing I noticed and absolutely fuckin love is when you start a game you can pick a track, you're pretty much in attract mode jukebox wise, but you can start game when you want and track keeps playing. Nice. Very nice.

Quoted from delt31:

After running through all the songs many times and not being familiar with maiden before this pin, I decided to keep all but one song (Run to the hills). To determine what to replace it with, I went through a lot of their songs and found this one - Wrathchild. Really liked that one. Therefore I injected it into the new code (PRO). If anyone wants it to use on their machine, I've posted it here. I used loseless audio (FLAC) so it sounds really good.

Quoted from trilamb:

The Stern Spike 2 Headphone kit will work on Iron Maiden right? I don't see any differences between IMDN and the last few Stern games (Batman 66, Star Wars, etc), and it works on those, so should be fine, right?

Quoted from trilamb:

What do you mean by use it as a line out? Like to external speakers or a sub? Or to headphones?

Quoted from chuckcasey:

The backbox light is adjustable at three points. In attract mode, in play and when in the portal. All adjustable in adjustments. I have my attract and in play brightness at 80. Defaults are 100.

Quoted from OnTheSnap:

That helps for one mode. However I find it hard with multipballs to hit loop shots. Both in moving focus from the bottom flippers. Or if you trap up on the left it can block needed shots with the upper left flipper.

Quoted from Tranquilize:

Question was, how you light tomb treasure...

Quoted from Gryszzz:

From what I understand there is a "mode select" shot. What is that shot and what do you guys think the most lucrative mode to start is? Mariner or Hallowed or ?

Quoted from Maken:

Thanks man.
My machine is pretty factory, set at 6.7 degrees. Outlanes are factory, like yours. Settings are factory.
The outlane drains feel fair to me on IMDN, compared to most other modern machines. If you are missing your shots, going out of control and into the slings... you should be draining via the outlanes, because that's pinball.
Certainly wouldn't move the posts in, you won't get any better by making your machines easier.

Quoted from Whifflebat:

I'm about to pull the trigger on a Pro for casual home use and had a couple of questions for the IMDN experts. I'm looking to get the Stern HD glass, Stern shaker motor and Stern headphone jack/external volume control upgrades. Any thoughts on those? Are there other recommended mods/upgrades I should be considering (plastic protectors)?
I may upgrade the speakers in the future, but want to see if the stock ones will be good enough for me. I've heard that the standard stock Stern balls aren't great. If this is the case, any suggestions on higher quality balls (and where to get them?)?

Quoted from Sinistarrett:

Yeah those callouts are great...dirty pool from TAF, the “ 2x completed” sounds straight outta Centaur and I also got “Feel my Power” from Sorcerer the other day.
Wonder what other old school callouts are hidden in there.

Quoted from Eskaybee:

Nvm. Just found it in the readme:
- added 'LIMIT RIGHT UP POST USE' - defaults to YES, which will not raise the Right Up Post for mode starts, change to NO to revert to old behavior EDIT: its feature adj #65
Btw. New lighting effects are bitchin! They’re almost like Dwighting effects

Quoted from Redketchup:

I’m in!
Little question, if i want to connect a sub, where do you route de wiring... there is no hole in the cab.

Quoted from Pale_Purple:

I was thinking this last night when playing and was going to post, didn’t know it was a flasher. I’ll have to pay more attention

Quoted from djreddog:

Really? Serious question. I’ve never bought a shaker, so curious to know.

Quoted from Shredso:

Has anyone figured out a way to deaden the knocking sound from the upper right flipper? I know it was mentioned earlier in this thread, but now it's 85 pages long! It's driving me crazy.

Quoted from KnockerPTSD:

The amount of times I've drained ball 3 only to have it then tell me cyborg is ready is sad. One more shot? Really? I've probably missed out on an collected cyborg MB as many times as I've actually gotten it. Maybe if the animations would keep up I'd have focused on the center ramp.

Quoted from Mancave:

Each to their own....BUT WTF??
I can't for the life of me imagine playing Maiden without hearing Maiden tunes!!
Would you buy a Beatles pin and use Eminem C-Rap?
I don't mean to start a tunes fight in this thread honest, just seems weird that someone would buy an Iron Maiden machine specifically and want to change all the music, makes no sense to me.

Quoted from mjruser:

Thanks for the reply. They are the same length so I'm guessing updating one will do the other, but I was hoping to get a confirmation.
Cheers!
Mike

Quoted from Tranquilize:

I'm assuming you mean this thing:
[quoted image]
I can't see how you'd need something like this. The inner loop is a tight and tough shot. If you don't hit it perfectly, the ball won't go around, no matter how many mods you stick in the game. Once you get that shot down, it goes way smoother. I've nailed I think 6 in a row until the spinner f'ed up the return. I nail two or three in a row almost every game, and I'm mod-free!
IMHO, no one needs these mods. It took me 15 minutes to fix my opto issue.

Quoted from WizardsCastle:

Any tips on completing Mummy MB? I have been able to get the other 3 cards, but for some reason, I just can't get Mummy. I find it difficult because if I'm trying to trap a ball with the left flipper, I can't make the orbit because the little flipper us up.
Thanks!

Quoted from red-line:

Joined the club tonight!! Question for you guys while I catch up on the thread: on the premium, should you be able to hit the target behind center ramp from the right flipper? I know you can on the pro, but I don't think I was able to hit it at all on my new premium in the handful of games I played tonight.

Quoted from Fezmid:

Wasn't there another plastic piece Stern was providing to help prevent balls from getting stuck somewhere in the back of the playfield? I thought I read a post about that awhile ago - but I can't find it in this long thread.
I ask because I emailed Stern support asking for the metal piece and also the ball protector, and they said they only have record of the metal piece -- if there's a specific post, I can forward it to them and ask.
