    Default Death Valley - reels seem loud

    I was just wondering is everyone else's Death Valley reels seem a little loud? mine almost have that "Yamasa" sound like my Neo Magic Pulsar.

    The reels aren't really bothersome or a problem but just curious on the other DV's out there.

    Thanks!

    PS here are some neat things to use as a topper:

    My Death Valley reels are a little bit louder than most other pachislos, but not as loud as the 3 Yamasa machines I have!
    I would say it's probably normal for Death Valley (Abilit machines)!
    Death Valley is so great, though, I hardly even notice!

    I don't have a Death Valley, but the Neo Pharaoh Zetz I just got from Gaku is about twice as loud as my other 2 Yamasa machines.
    I was kind of suprised it is so loud.

    Oh well, it works great though.

    My Neo Zetz also is louder than my Destroyer and Twenty Seven!
    It must be something common on Zetz to be louder!
    Zetz also has this humming resonance sound to it that i have been trying to get rid of, but to no avail! Anyone have any suggestions on that?
    Thanks!

    I don't think there is a solution to the Yamasa reels... I think it is pretty much in all their machines... I think I did read where someone on here tried to use rubber to isolate the reel cage, but I don't think it helped. Someone also I believe used contact spray to clean the stepper motors on the reels and I think it helped (if my memory serves me).

    Everything Yamasa is loud on their reels. I think it's the speed they spin them at myself. They spin faster than others, try eye-shooting a Yamasa sometime, at least the newer Neo models and on from there.

    I love their themes but a Yamasa machine is more like an American slot in playability.

    I've noticed that they slow down quite a bit when you are in a chance to allow accurate eye shooting. Also sometimes two reels are spinning faster and one at random is spinning at what I call normal or slow speed to allow accurate eye shooting as well. If that makes any sense.
