ArcadeMTL - 20EZ Chassis
« on: May 28, 2018, 07:29:39 am »
Hello everyone,
As you may already know, i'm one of the owner of ArcadeMTL.

Our DK cab has been out of service for the last few weeks; our monitor just died.
We're looking for a 20EZ replacement chassis but we are currently unable to find one.

Does any of you got one hanging around or know where we could get one?

Our other solution would be to convert it to an LCD but that would be quite a shame...

Thanks!

I don't know where to find a replacement Sanyo 20EZ.  Hopefully someone can point in the right direction to look for one.

But if one can't be found, there is a way to use a standard arcade CRT in a Donkey Kong cabinet.
If you're lucky there may already be a separate inverter board mounted to your 20EZ.  It would allow you to invert the R,G & B signals so a standard arcade monitor can be connected instead.

If the inverter board is not there you can get a color inverter from Mike's Arcade:

I hope that helps, or at least opens up more options to avoid going the LCD route.

KLOV is the best place to watch.  I don't see any complete working chassis currently, but they come up pretty frequently.  There are few complete monitors, but obviously if they're not local to you its not worth shipping the entire monitor.  You may need to register on the forum:

If that search link doesn't work for you then just peruse the parts FS section:

While I HATE fixing monitors I'd HATE to see it get an LCD even worse. If you can get the chassis out and ship it, I can fix it. Send me a PM and we can work out the details.

You're a good man, Ken!  :)  The 20EZ chassis is no small effort, even if it's just a cap kit.

I dont' remember this being part of the listing the other day, but it seems the seller is now willing to sell and ship just the chassis:
