Title: Building a MAME cab for the first time. Is this a good choice for a CRT?

Wells Gardner WGM2792. Getting it for $50 in great shape, no burn in and includes bevel.

Any thoughts on this model? Will it work for a MAME cab?

Thx

Wgm2792 is a d9200 crt. The product you linked to is a wgm2794, a d9400, which is the newer revision of the 9200. The 9200 was known to have a lot of problems. Just a little fyi. Do some research on common problems and fixes if it is truly a d9200.
