To the people who want things retro, I'm sorry in advance... I'm not building a cab that's going to mimic my childhood and I'm not restoring anything. My idea is a bit weird... I'm making a 4 player Mame showcase cab with a twist. I'm adding a arches that will go up and behind the podium. They will contain speaker wire... For what you say? Speakers! :cheers: Let me back up... I have an extra 5.1 surround sound receiver in my garage that is going to power my Mame. I will have 5.1 surround on my Mame cab! Also, I'm going to have extra wide elbow room for the 4 players. :o I hate going to an arcade and feeling to fat. I don't want others to feel the same way. I know I will get flack for the 5.1 because games aren't in surround. I will however counter with this.. I'm doing a Mame build and it will have emulators on it as well. Some game on playstation 1 and up were in surround. OK... any thoughts? Please try to be nice lol |

Whatever makes you happy. Sounds like a good project. How wide will the showcase be? Word to the wise, don't say anything about angling the player 3 and 4 controls. ;D |

No, I don't want to angle it. Honestly the whole build will look like a damn ride at an amusement park lol I just want everyone to get immersed in the game. Ample shoulder room and kick ass sound. Maybe some flashy lights and crap but I want the sound and playability to be my number one goal. Who cares how kick ass your cab looks if you can't play it. I went to this gaming expo in WI a couple weekends ago, it was awesome! I hope to show up with this cab! God I'm nerdy lol Has anyone put surround in Mame cabs before? :dizzy: |
