How to get the best possible video from a retro console...

I finally get my lazy ass off the couch and hauled SONY WEGA KLV-15AP2 unit.
Still in the process of gathering RGB switch as well as mobile shelving unit to house all the consoles - IKEA used have one I had in mind but seemed to be out of stock.

we shall see how it goes...

 

This thread is in breach of the marketplace rules - there's no price! Are you even selling anything here?

Suggest moving to the Neo Geo section. Then you can create a sales thread when you're ready to sell.

 

you are right retro.
didn't realize it's under the marketplace forum. @_@

 

So, if you owned an NEC XM29 or other "pro" monitor you could just directly connect your Neo to it with this. Right?

 

Yeah, exactly...


From the XM29 manual:

Supports most IBM VGA, S-VGA, XGA, Macintosh or any other RGB
signals within a horizontal frequency range or 15.75 to 95 kHz (15.75 to
65 kHz for XM29 Plus)

 

Right. The SCART physical connector itself was a miserable commercial failure in the US.
Our few monitors who accept such RGB signals may use BNC, d-sub, or even DIN.

 

So because of that, I think the OP's design is pretty good. A lot of people are collecting the 15khz pro monitors now, and most of them take either RGBHV over BNC connectors, or just have a VGA connector right on the back.

Combined with one of these, it's a great solution for getting RGB from a Neo to a Sony PVM.

 

this is why I don't use DE9 connectors.
