GRAIL MONITOR SCORE....well, sort of

(1/3) > >>

Gray_Area:
Over the past few years I've missed some (probably) good monitors at the local university surplus auction. An NEC XM29 for sure, and a different model NEC that I think was also digital. Though they have online bidding, I think I neglected to bid on the XM29, and I think I was out-bid on the other. $35, if I remember, which surprised me. Given that I don't need any, as well as have a beautiful but un-used Mitsubishi 31" analog multisync, I'd kind of blown off looking. But...now and then I've given it a gander....and look what I came up with last week!

A Mitsubishi XC-3730C. (Made in April 1999 - this seems a common time for presentation monitors.)  Not just digital. This baby's range is 40-120 hz, 15-85 khz !!   And with a stunning picture. 

Oh yeah, I got this for five bucks.

Great find, greater monitor.   I pretty much abandoned using my MAME cab after I got my first big presentation monitor. 

I think 6500k grows on you after a while.

Have you tried watching video on this thing?  4:3 HD content looks amazing in 720p, especially live action stuff like UFC/Pro Wrestling.  Older TV shows with HD releases too.

Just a quick note that the vid is definitely NSFW (language! You perverts!)

ChadTower:

Nice!  I used to have a couple of 27" like that and they really are awesome for DIY folks like us.

You're so lucky.  :hissy:
