8Liner Monitors
« on: March 05, 2013, 10:13:37 am »
Has anyone purchased or have any experience with 8Liner's 19" arcade monitors? I was thinking about purchasing one and was curious if anyone had an opinion on this brand.

Thanks!

Oh, I thought you just got a chassis for a TV tube.  I'm wondering how well those work out.  Very few TVs have burn-in.

You ordered that from 8liners? It was VGA?

I love how some guys come on here looking for a quick answer to their problem, then they try something out and bail rather than sharing their findings and possibly helping others that may come around after them.

mgb-
Your comment made me laugh!! Quick answer? I was just asking what people thought about 8liner monitors. No one responded in a month with over 200 views!! Now I am being called out for not responding to a question immediately after it was posted. hahaha.

yotsuya-
Yes. I ordered from 8liners. I suggest contacting them if you are interested and explain to Victor what kind of monitor you are looking for. Be specific. If you have anymore questions feel free to contact me.

I was just saying cause that does happen a lot around here
But you are right. I'm sorry, for some reason my tired eyes saw the date wrong and I thought it was longer.

Consider that statement stricken :)
