wanted: 25 inch tri-sync monitor in the uk (for a decent price)

[gazz292]

i'm not sure i like my hantarex polo 2 monitor, the shadow mask is just too wide for my liking, as i sit fairly close to the monitor, and hence everything is very blocky, i also have a bit of work to do on it's chassis,

so i'm thinking of getting a better monitor,

i'd like to get a tri-sync monitor, then i can run a decent resolution for the front end, and hopefully have a much narrower shadow mask and thus less blocky pictures.

all i seem to be albe to find on ebay and arcade shop sites in the uk are brand new tri-syinc monitors, for around £300, and they are all larger than 25 inch, think i may be able to fit a 27 incher in my cab (golden tee 1999, zeon cab)
does anyone know where i can get one second hand?? anyone got one to sell?

only 25" tri sync i ever seen in u.k is polostar,brent electronic have a few left but you will need to be sitting down when you hear the price-£579.00 plus vat

well, i was laying down when i read the price, does that count.

i can get a 2nd hand 28 inch polostar for £190, but dont really want one as they are not digital settings, i.e. every time the frequency changes, the vertical and horizontal size, position and hold pots will need twiddeling... so i may as well get a 31khz monitor, and make mame stretch/compress the games to fit, then i may as well not have bothered with the AVGA card.

i guess my other option is to find a scrap cab with a tri-sync monitor in it, and the person selling it not knowing that the monitor is worth something.

you only find digital monitors on imported U.S machines like Raw Thrills and global vr,they tend to be wells gardner d9200 or 9400
