I started a thread in the yahoo ukpinball group and someone posted a link to this speaker isolating circuit. I may have a go once I've finished doing everything else to the table.

Hmm wonder if my brother would like to fix his with that schematic. Trust me he's more than capable of doing it. (He's a TV Studio engineer)

I read on pinside it could be a bad or loose capacitor on the sound board, and some guy makes a PCB add on you can buy.

To recap this table was sold to me with LED's fitted throughout which was obviously not the case. It's taken me a few weeks to get it sorted but supposedly the LEDs were sent to me today. To be honest I think it looks pretty amazing at it is but the guy who sold it to me owes me a set so I'm going to have a play with them this weekend assuming they come. So, here are a few before screen shots ready for comparison, the only LEDs fitted at the moment are frosted white 44's to the playfield GI's, I'll be replacing some of these with greens and blues when they come.;

Now you got it all back together you get to tear it apart again!
But this time youll be faster at it. Damn so many lights on the playfield, putting LEDs under them will blow your mind although the yellow bulbs arnt that bright they should look good under yellow lenses or use a warm white for a brighter look. What you plan to do with the lighting in the headboard and does it have LED bulbs already? if not throw the GI lights up there after you take them out Cant wait to see what it looks like Oh! and get a before and after video too if you can.

The black line on those rounded targets will come off, kinda sticks out since everything else is so clean

Yeah I've yet sort them, I've done 1 bank of 3, removed, cleaned and new foam fitted. I had been waiting for the foam pads to arrive and I have them now. They'll be coming out on the weekend too.

What brand are those? I see 3 pop bumper reds wow your table uses alot of 555's. red and blue 89's for police effect sweet. If your greens wash out detail mix in a white helps blend and separate colors, you'll see. Im excited for you! 110 I count is that right? and why do you have 1 44 style bulb with all the 555's?

The underside of the playfield is mostly 555's but has a few 44's thrown in. For instance there's 9 white rpm inserts, 8 are 555's and 1 is a 44!. It's to do with the size of the circuit boards, the 555's are on circuit boards but the 44's are in the usual separate holders. No idea what make they are, go and have a look here.

Interesting a UK based company, I bought mine from COINTAKER. I noticed the company you got bulbs from thier flex bulbs have longer wires and no lenses ontop enless thier fogged hmmm. the lenses ontop help cast light out to the sides but can be taken off then they look like yours. No lense is good under inserts but for GI it helps spread light so you dont get a single point under plastics. Now you'll have a bunch of replacements sow how much you pay?
sow how much you pay?Congratulations on the purchase. More than that, congratulations on tearing it open and making it yours. That's the good part. There are always going to be problems, and solving them is special. When I realized that my Safe Cracker's drainy bank kickout was because of some mushrooming on one side and I could just file that off -- that made my week.
Unfortunately the damn thing works almost perfectly now and hardly gets dirty, so I guess I need to find another beater after this rubber change. Not sure how to explain that to my wife, especially since I can't very well sell the Safe Cracker. Where would I find another?
