Help me pick a tri-res chassis

[Rattanee]

Hey guys.

I'm planning to build a custom arcade from a Cruisin USA cab to use some older PC games on. Also going to have two jamma connectors in there, one for the original game boards, and one to hook up anything else I might feel like... it's going to be rather complex with all the switchign circuitry, but before I start anything, I need a Tri-res monitor.
In all honesty I have quite a few tubes I could use, and would just need a tri-res chassis to go with one of my tubes. Are there any 'universal' tri-res chassis out there? (Like Wei-ya used to make, though the only ones I have of those are 15khz only...) Or do I need to buy a whole monitor? (Would be a pain to ship seeing I'm in the middle of Europe)
In either case what would you guys recommend? I'd prefer something with digital controls so I can save settings for each resolution separately...

you have to match the deflection yoke and neck pinouts
you will need a ohm meter and an inductance meter to read the yoke
the only digital chassis i have seen that was available as a chassis only is the wei ya 2929 quad sync

Thing is I'd like to use a 28" tube from a hantarex polo.... or a 25" tube (I only have wells tubes atm which all suck bigtime admittedly...)  I'd actually be satisfied with a 31k only chassis aswell if I could hook it up to one of my tubes... in that case of course the cab would be pc only... and I'll still need to find a usable force feedback wheel that I could hack to use the big motor in the cruisin cab

no tri res will match any of your tubes
the tri res chassis normally have a 0.300mh or 0.195mh horizontal inductance-all you tubes are around 0.900mh

Can anyone suggest a good monitor then? I'd prefer a nanao above all though I've no idea if there are any tri-res models at all. I'll settle for any 25 even vga-only monitor that came with well aligned tubes. I'm sick of looking at all the ---smurfy--- wg tubes.

Edited - I hate spammers....

25" would be a problem,only seen hantarex polostar and rodotron 666a in that size

even 25" vga monitors are difficult to come by as most tended to be 29" such as nanao ms2932,ms2934,sanwa 29es31s

if you get the right deflection yoke and some luck you can put any of those chassis on a 25" tube(neck pinout allowing)

Hantarex sounds good to me... Much prefer them over wells and a few others. Guess I'll need to get hunting then... Rodotron... never even heard of that one before... they any good?

Hrrmm.... Those nanaos used toshiba tubes aswell ? I could snag a complete monitor from a Naomi universal with a knackered tube, just not sure if I could get my hands on a 25" tube that had a usable neck pinout.

rodotron are almost identical to wei ya,tend to find them in alot of more recent european/far east built crt cabinets

if you could get a naomi crt then if its a sanwa you can swap the deflection yoke on the hanty 28" tube and run the sanwa chassis-not sure how good the geometry and convergence would be but i expect most would adjust out-I done it on a 25" polo tube with a sanwa es31s chassis/yoke and it looked pretty fine
