good 27" for mame + console cab

<< < (2/2)

vidmouse:
I'm using a Sony Trinitron 27", it remembers settings and powers back on.

Alternatively, if you don't have one that powers back on but remembers
settings, you can always hack the TV power button to a hidden
arcade pushbutton.  My website has a page that shows how to do
this even though I didn't need to w/ the Sony.

ARTIFACT:
I picked up a 27" Sony Trinitron locally for $40 ... mint condition (2000)

It remembers power setting (Essential! many TVs do... test them) but it only has S-Video  (no component or VGA) ... I guess it's worth looking around for a TV with component inputs.

Oh.. it's HEAVY :)

Just make sure you don't get one of those "HD Ready" TVs... (some of the early CRT models are up for grabs cheap nowaday too) they just look too "sharp" IMHO... None of that scanlines/blur goodness going on..
