Sony PVM-2530 - will it fit in a defender cabinet?
« on: October 14, 2013, 11:57:53 am »
I have been saving a few Sony PVM-2530 (25") monitors for a mame cabinet for quite some time.  Well, the neighbors moved and left a broken defender cabinet behind. (Repainted for TOTAL CARNAGE lol)  Anyways, the screen is toast, and I am wondering if anybody knows if a 25" sony PVM monitor will fit in this cab?  Any feedback welcomed.

Thanks!

It won't fit according to the dimensions I've seen: 25.75 for monitor and 24.5 for the inside measurement of the cab. It would probably work if you took the monitor out of the frame, though.

Thanks for the responses.  Ended up trading my cabinet straight up with  another local guy for a Special Forces cabinet that had a 25" monitor in it previously.  Bezel should fit nicely, etc...
