Speaker question
« on: March 13, 2008, 05:30:25 am »
I just got a empty cabinet today and I removed the marquee panel and noticed it has the speaker and lighting still in it. I'm going to turn it into a MAME cab and I was wondering if there's a way I could re-wire them and still use them?

Here's a picture of what I'm talking about

You have a Williams cabinet that was probably originally a Joust or Robotron or Moon Patrol.

The wiring to the 120 volt ac fluorescent light fixture should not have been messed with and neither should have been the speaker. Bob Roberts has an excellent basic cabinet AC wiring page at his site.

Yea it use to be a Joust Cab, I posted in another thread I was only able to save the marquee.

Thanks for the help, I googled Bob Roberts and found his site, it looks really insightful.
