Title: OK, I'm starting to think this does not exist...
Post by: Justin on March 23, 2003, 02:40:56 pm
I'm giving up on this!   >:(

I need a TV for my cab with the following specs:

-Anywhere from 22" to 25" diagonal viewable
-Max. dimensions W: 23.75"   D: 20"
-Must have S-Video input

I've looked and looked, all 25" lack S-Video.  And the only one I found with S-Video is too big  :'(

This one:
25" TV at K-Mart (http://www.bluelight.com/product/index.jsp?productId=1123719&cp&searchId=10270312877&sGroup=Electronics&keywords=25+tv&fpricesort=priceAscending&filter=yes&parentPage=search)

Someone help me before I go crazy :P

Here is one that is a bit small but fits your dimensions.  Did you consider mounting without the case to reduce the size a bit?

I forgot to mention I did not want a flat screen  :)  It will kill the experience, as all classic cabs used curved monitors.

Oh, I'm getting too picky... argh! :/

Oh, removing the enclosure from the TV is out of the question, as I'm scared to death of high voltages in tubes.  This is why I went with a TV instead of a Wells Gardner in the first place.

Use the WG, just don't plug it it until you've finished the cab!!
