Hello everyone! So I purchased a Crystal Castles last weekend (One of my must-haves for my collection!), and trust me, I saved this one from its fate. It was owned by an operator, and was selling because Bentley was moving around the board erratically.
So I went into this purchase kinda impulsively, and while the cabinet is in pretty good shape, the inside is another story. The only thing original inside is the PCB and MAYBE the monitor tube. It's missing speakers, the trackball is white, it's definitely been pieced together.
I replaced both POKEYS and that fixed the trackball issue. Game plays correctly now. I ordered speakers and a utility panel switch assembly, and want to hook the audio. Here's where my confusion lies. Do I need an AR II for this? I've read here and there that you can run the audio directly from the PCB. Is this the case? Please help me clear up my confusion about this. I have no clue where to start here. Thanks in advance!
