My First NIB Monitor ! Kortek KT-2001M
« on: November 22, 2009, 04:24:48 pm »
I was very lucky to get this in Europe. A NIB, NOS arcade monitor, a Kortek KT-2001M.

I just opened the box and MAN it is nice to have a brand new monitor in my hands !

No rust.
No dust.
All metal and screws shiny and new.
CRT nice and round and protected with a sticky cover.
Remote pots.

It's almost orgastic :D

I know, nothing special in the US, but here these are more rare than SW cockpits.

Looks like the connector is like the Hantarex connector. No manual in the box, anyone has a manual for this ?

Your KTM-2001 is the European version (slight differenrces for the European market) of the KTN-2001 which is common to the North American market.

Use this manual from the Kortek USA (Casino Tech) website:

Ken, if there were an award for Forum Heroes, you'd win it !

Thanks again !!!

(do you have any experiences with this monitor ? What's your honest opinion ?)

Construction looks OK to me. It has a Samsung CRT. Is Kortek a Samsung brand name maybe ?

Kortek (like many other monitor manufacturers) uses picture tubes from several tube manufacturers in their monitors.
