14" or 13" CRT Monitor for arcade cab

To be honest, the burn in them was annoying me haha, i plugged in the 15 inch crt earlier with a slg scanline thing, and its perfect! just need to get a crt monitor to fit in the cocktail now and ill be happy. unfortunately finding a crt14" or smaller seems pretty hard these days!

I went down the road of tvs before and found it too much hassle to be honest, finding a tv that switches on at power etc and even then i was using an arcadevga and it was a pain in the arse.

Ive a 60in1 with all games disabled except space invaders, a slg 3000 for scan lines. the 60in1 has a vga connection on it so its dead handy just sticking in a crt monitor if i can find one.

The picture on the one i have with the scanline generator is perfect! the feckin thing just wouldnt fit in the cocktail table, it was too big in fairness, its about a 15", if i can find a 13" it will work great, a 14" MIGHT fit in im not sure.

I'll keep an eye out for one.

Thanks a lot, appreciate it.

Have it working with a LCD via vga.

bought a 15" CRT monitor and plugged that in, great picture, much better than the lcd, BUT doesnt fit in the cocktail table when decased.

So need a 14" or smaller crt with a vga connection so i can fit it in the cocktail.

Im after a 14" or smaller CRT. i have a few lcds but dont think they look as good in cabs.

Might be picking up a 14" on saturday to try, couldnt live with an lcd in it long term after seen the picture on a crt with the slg3000

haha i dunno.. picture seemed more arcadey like when i turned it on. was real smooth before hand.. maybe i dont need it, i only had it plugged in for a minute to make sure it was working before i attempted to put it in the cab. is a crt monitor the same as having an arcade monitor in it?

it didnt seem to have any scanlines until i switched on the slg. im not up on my different monitors and that so i dont really have a clue, it was a million times better than the lcd though, i know that much!
