[US-MA] FS: 27" presentation monitor *SOLD*

[ChadTower]

Just don't have a projected use for it or the space to keep it around anymore.  Works well but all I use it for is watching DVDs.  Does have the remote.  Cannot ship.  Willing to trade but since I'm clearing space that might not be so easy.

just a question, how do you connect that monitor to a computer? s-video?

Looks like you could use a vga-to-bnc adapter, yes?

I haven't tried it but I imagine that's the way it would be done.  The RGB inputs are four BNCs which I think means composite sync.

damn... i passed one of those up at a fleamarket because i didnt see a vga input.

is the picture good with the vga-to-bcn adapter? you dont have to do no special modifications? no speacial video card? special screen settings?

Hi Chad, I'm very interested in that monitor, I have a similar sony one in my cab now and would like to grab it for a backup.. I'm in Taunton so not to far from you.. shoot me a pm and we can set something up for this weekend.

Yeah, this is a purely 15khz monitor. Looks nice though.

These things are insanely good. 

All you need is one of these:

Plus one of these:

which you will use to combine the sync signals if you don't want to splice cables to get the signal to the monitor. 

You can play MAME in native resolution on them, or play NES, SNES, N64, Sega Genesis, in theirs. 


This is basically a very high quality arcade monitor! 

The only difference is that the dot pitch is finer than an arcade monitor, so you may not have the same roundness and fuzzyness of the pixels on a true old school monitor, but other than that these things beat playing MAME on your PC monitor 100x times over.

They make BNC 4 cables.

[Jack Burton]

Doh, of course.  Just hadn't personally seen one and didn't think of it.

Thanks Chad, monitor worked great.  Got it home, attached it to my laptop via a vga to bnc cable and fired up a game of mspacman using Vantage set to arcade (15khz) mode and it worked great.

Not sure what i'm going to use it for atm, but it's a nice backup.

Nice.  Wish I had room to keep it but if I ever need one I can get another.
