Astro City Cab
mattr:
Hello,
I am thinking of purchasing an Astro City cabinet second hand but I have not found much information on them. Does anyone have experience with these cabinets? I am curious about people thoughts.
Can they can be refurbished with new Happ joysticks and buttons easily?
Thanks in advance,
Matt

The Candy cabinets are all terribly similar, shop by monitor size, condition and location, and not by model.
Yes, you can refit them with US style controls. I left the Japanese controls on mine.

Just my opinion, but I've grown to love the japanese sticks/buttons in my sit-at cabs. Save the happ stuff for wooden control panels.

I found a working cab with no damage. It comes with a 2 player 6 button cp and a 29" Nanao monitor. It is 5 years old. I assume the monitor is a standard size ?
Im in Oz so its not as cheap as I've seen them in the US but cheaper than I can buy a WG D9200 so that laid my DIY plans to rest. :P
I'm told you can rotate (manually) the monitor for vertical. Is this true?

Yes you can. Look at the last couple posts in this thread for more info:
