Yes, there are just two boards: The main board that handles the CPU processes and sound, and the force feedback board.

UPDATE: I adjusted the power supply, and under load, I'm getting the following voltages at the CPU/Sound board: +5.06 -5.14 +12.26 Also, I've verified that the wiring from the P3 pinout (on the CPU/Sound board) to the speakers is in good shape.

My dedicated Off Road Challenge upright has always been 100%, and was 100% when I last played it three weeks ago, but today when I turned it on, I had no sound whatsoever. (Whether in-game or on the sound test screen.) As soon as the game is powered on, I get 2 of the "bong" noises. After the...

UPDATE: I will be near Louisville, KY Thanksgiving week and can bring the game with me for a local deal in that area.

Poor, R&B. Had it been kept under a leaky roof?

I STILL haven't gotten to play ANY version of Tron. :(

Oh no, I can't imagine they'll do anything like that. I just think that "under the hood" there are gonna be some things that make the discerning pinball enthusiast say, "Hmmmm...$8,000 for this?" But from the outside, I hope it feels and plays as good as the real thing, and I hope that...

I sure hope so.

I bet it's gonna be comparable in certain aspects. (Namely the electronics.) Things like the little 60-in-1 looking emulator board and the way their handling the LEDs just screams cheaply-produced and "Made in China".
