Title: Are arcade monitors compatible with all cabinets??
Post by: eggedd2k on July 17, 2005, 10:32:01 am

this might sound like a daft question but do all relevant sized arcade monitors fit in all cabinets? reason i ask is because i'm looking at replacing the monitor in my cab.  It's a 19" one in there at the moment and bolts to the cabinet front (from the inside).

It's got a pcb with it which the rgb etc cables from the jamma edge connector go to (there's a 6 pin male connector on the board for this).

thanks

Arcade monitors don't always have the same bolt patterns in their frames.

thanks mike. i thought that might be the case. i guess it'd be easy enough to drill new bolt holes.
