Thanx for the endorsement. To answer the question for anyone
else reading - yes and yes. The first "yes" is more important
than the second one :)

ObVector:

...and after having racked up scores in the 55-60K range on the
Asteroids Deluxe machine at Union Station in Toronto, I discover
they've replaced the unit with a Star Wars upright. Now I've
gotta re-learn how to play *that* :-)

ObTech:

I like bass. I've just picked up a couple of 12" speakers for
dirt cheap at the local surplus store, and they're definitely
too heavy to be driven by the amps in the Atari vector games.

Any suggestions as to how to go about hooking up an Asteroids or
an Asteroids Deluxe to a homebuilt external amp? (i.e. can I
just run it in parallel with the AUDIO signals from the board,
or should I switch out all of the the original hardware when
attempting to create small seismic disturbances with the new
speakers?)

Also, these speakers are unshielded, so using the other one on my
color vector multigame cabinet will be difficult without distorting
the picture on the monitor. Anyone know of cheap/easy ways of
shielding speakers?

Later,
Doug.
