I am looking to buy a new CGA Monitor. These are vision pro monitors I am new to this and I wanted to get your opinion before I purchased a monitor.

I've bought 2 from there and they look great.

I've got one in a Xevious, and the other in my vertical mame cab with a trident64 card.



Later,

Vision Pro are distributed mainly by Happ Controls. They are decent monitors.

I am looking to buy a new CGA Monitor. These are vision pro monitors I am new to this and I wanted to get your opinion before I purchased a monitor.

I've also bought two. They have a beautiful picture. I broke the tube on one,  :'( and the other is in my Galaga.

I recommend Arcadeshop.
I have changed my nickname to "Cakemeister". Please do not PM the Buddabing account because I do not check it anymore.

Please read the wiki!

These monitors are great.  I picked up one about 2 weeks ago from arcadedepot and didn't know what to expect because of the relatively low price, and all I can say is one word...>WOW

I'm going to try to put together a pwoer buy for these monitors. The pirce will be between $155-160 (plus shipping).
I'll have Happ Controls drop ship them. I'll need about 10 orders to get this deal.
If you can wait a week you might want to join in.
