Quoted from MarkG:What's important in getting good tone out of any chime is to get the right length of chime based on the spacing of the mounting points...
...To better illustrate what's happening there's a short video at the bottom of this page to show the nodes in a vibrating chime: https://www.funwithpinball.com/learn/chimes-vibrations-and-pitches
Has anyone researched/confirmed if Williams chimes were designed properly with respect to this node spacing?
Those are all good points fatpanda. I've only had one Williams EM so I've never done anything other than rehab it's original unit.
Would be nice to see what a homemade tone box, home Depot aluminum bars and maybe repositioning of the mounts and coils could accomplish. I am not a fan of taking Gottlieb assemblies for use in non-Gottlieb games.
