Buying a tri-sync monitor in the UK?
meherenow:
Hi everybody, as the topic states, where on earth can I buy a tri-sync monitor in the UK?
I've searched the site (and the web!) and came accross a couple of threads from last year but the links seem out of date or dead - tried the Suzo-Happ website and the UK site also seems dead - I am stuck!
I am currently using a rubbish 20" DIGIMATE tv (bought from Tesco a few years ago) hooked up via ArcadeVGA in my cab running MAME - it does the job of course very well with the ArcadeVGA, the only problem being that the overscan is so large and I cannot find ANY details on accessing any kind of sevice mode on this TV to fix this (I still have a random shot at pressing and holding different buttons every time I switch it on :'( )
So I need some expert help! My cab should take a 27" monitor, any suggestions? I am loathe to import from the U.S. to get pumelled by customs charges and VAT, there must be somewhere in the UK or EU that will supply my needs? I was so close to biting the bullet and buying a Wells Gardner D9800 from xgaming but some bad reviews have put me off, also the VAT/customs charges I would incur.
Thank you for listening and I look forward to your advice - now off for another game of something where I can't see my bloody score or number of men left :banghead:

You 'may' be able to get a Sanwa PFX tri sync which are meant to be the dogs. They are 29" but I believe 29" Jap is 27" US/Euro.
I just bought a pair of 27" 15khz monitors and I have been told they will both go straight in my 27" Jamma cab and one of my 29" Naomi candys.
For the PFX try Andy @ [Sega Shed] I believe he had some PFX's a while a go. If he doens't have any I'm sure he will be able to tell you where you can get one or something similar.

Thanks for the info, I will look into that, does anyone else have any alternatives? Cheers in advance!

Brent Leisure are the UK Wells-Gardner distibutors but they are VERY expensive.
It might even be cheaper to import a Wei-Ya monitor from Taiwan than buy a W-G from Brent Leisure.
