Title: How can I measure my cab for a monitor?
Post by: Ortizimo on December 25, 2008, 05:37:48 pm

i bought a KI cab but im not 100% sure this is an original one. How do I measure it to know what the max size monitor I can put in it? Diag? or from bracket to bracket? I know 25" monitor will fit this cab but can I put something else in it like 29"?

You would need two items of measurement:  The monitor size with screen and mounts, the case opening size, from mounting corner to mounting corner.  Then you'll know what fits in it.  Some monitors take up more space, or less, than others of its same screen size (due to mounts/cases)
