Monitor Kortek KT1948 - would it work on an arcade cab?

[Superully]

the title says it all, here are the specs i found on the web



and some pics









i MIGHT be able to get a couple of these, perhaps we could even do a group buy if it were to fit. so where are you, monitor experts?

This is a VGA monitor (31kHz) ... so, no, this wont work. What we need is 15kHz, like in TVs.

Cant you somehow double the signal and make it work?

You can use a converter.

The result will be good, but it won't be exactly the same than display a native 15kHz signal.
I'm using that converter to play my APB on a VGA monitor (I don't have the original 24kHz monitor for that cab), and it looks really nice.

You can find them on ebay, right here.

It will be fine if you want to mame a cabinet, dont care about the original resolutions and things like that, and like an easy setup with PC 

I bet its plug and play with windows

If you combine the converter with this, you will get close to the real thing:
