    Sexy, but they're the most annoying things in the world to store, EVAR! I'd love to buy more but they're just too damn big.

    I had a cable ages ago to run my 360 on an LCD panel via VGA. The cable had wires coming out of it to go to speakers. You could always just do that, and have a couple of extra PC speakers sitting inside the cab somewhere for when you're using the 360?

    I could do that - but where would the challenge be :pac: Ideally I want a switch type box inside, that will change it between Jamma/MVS/Xbox360 input for sound/picture/controls

    The current xbox vga cable has 2 phono outs for left and right audio. Need to find a nice neath way to patch them into the amp and out through the speakers on the NAC

    Dude you got to remember it's only a candy arcade machine not the entrance to Narnia if you cram in too much something is bound to short.

    My 2 cents

    Yeah I'm getting a regular astro so it does not have an amp.
    I am thinking for xbox360 i could just hook two jacks from the vga cable into one of these which you can get on ebay for less than a tenner.

    Quick question to people in the know.
    If you play a candy with no board (eg xbox360) can it damage machine/PS due to insufficient load. I've heard this banded around before

    Hey

    Well depends on the type of psu some expensive ones have a 5 volt led that stops the psu burning out without a board been installed.

    Then there is the ones that go fizz bang smoke game over :eek:

    It's a dodgy situation

    Cheers for that.
    must find out if my Cab has this type of PSU in it.
    So is it the LED in these PSU's that takes current from the 5v. If so can you not just get some sort of 5V led and wire and attach it to Jamma connector so it is loaded.
    Please excuse the electrical ignorance:D
