Todd H:

So has anyone out there been brave enough to try the WG 9800?

november:

I must ask.

I see lots of comments about digital monitors.

What of the K7400 series, it's analog?

I'm possibly in the market for a new monitor if I cannot fix mine and was going to go with the 7424 until I was told about this topic.

Ken Layton:

The k7400 has been found to be reliable.

For Neiman Displays west of the Mississippi, drop me a line.

AndyWarne:

I have never really understood why arcade monitor manufacturers produce tri-sync monitors. Its lucky for us that they do, because they are great for Mame, when fed with a source which uses all the range of frequencies, such as an ArcadeVGA. But for the real intended market, ie coin-op cabinets, what is the need for a multi-sync monitor when the game only ever uses one resolution?
Multi-sync monitors are much more complex than fixed frequency and designing a horizontal output stage which will work from 15 to 31 or even 38 Khz is a real challenge especially on large screens and inevitably stresses components to the limit. Why do the coin-ops not stick with a simple, reliable, fixed-frequency monitor?
