Are you in NorCal or SoCal? There are enough arcade collectors in both regions that you might be able to find someone local to sell to on this forum and save yourself the hassle/cost of shipping something so large/heavy.

~33F of lag (~550ms) is a surprisingly slow result, even if I'm aware of the SFA3U's reputation of being laggy. I'm not sure this is directly comparable due to methodologies used, but the inputlag.science website shows CPS2 usually has about 2.6F of lag, so even if we subtracted 3F from the...

Good to know. I wasn’t aware there are different variations of the harness

I'm not sure about the Apocalypse C2 multi, but I know the aje_fr C2 multi does support both games. For reference, I ran both games on my board. Pardon the crappy image quality. It was just a quick setup and phone snap to verify my claim.

Assuming your cab is stock and doesn't have a hacked up JAMMA harness, you can build or buy both the stereo cable and kick harness cable since they are detachable. If you just plug the JAMMA harness, you should get mono audio if you don't have a stereo cable...

This OK Baby looks like a lot of the internal parts that are normally gutted out of these cabs are still intact (PSU setup, PCB mounting tray, and maybe the CRT frame although I can't see for sure). I've seen many of these cabs with all the wiring and power hacked out, and later replaced with...

The GBSC is infamous for poor wifi performance due to interference from the video processing. Try to see if you're able to access the web GUI when the device is on, and everything is disconnected (don't feed any video signal into it). I've never used this specific model before, but I wouldn't...

It's an auction listing, so price is a bit more unstable because of that. There's a few other factors that will affect it: - The listing itself mentioned the setup as non-working (claims NO-CD but doesn't boot) - The game is SF3 NG, and more SIMMs are needed for other games like 3rd Strike -...

I should also note that cabs in excellent condition and collector quality are totally different things. Finding excellent condition cabs won't be as difficult since you can refurbish a cab to be excellent condition. Repaint a cab in automotive quality, put high quality repro parts like...

I never said you weren't a serious collector. What I'm trying to emphasize is that you have given very little information from your earlier posts, and it's hard to give a serious response if you aren't willing to put some more effort into your posts. You're collection's total value isn't what I...

Fine. I'll bite. To answer your question, an AliExpress Astro City is generally not a good idea. They are usually in poor condition, and poorly resprayed, plus it's a bit of a lottery in terms of what you get inside. You might not get an original monitor (it certainly wont be a burn free...

Resin could make sense, but it would mean whatever machine he's using is pro grade, and far beyond what's available in the normal consumer market. I'm thinking in the 10s of not 100s of thousands, not including maintenance/materials. CPS2 cases are pretty big (400ish mm length) and a resin vat...

This looks more like injection molding to me instead of 3D printing. This is a pretty large and complicated object and the pictures shown don't have the typical characteristics that would show as a normal 3D print (layer lines for FDM, sagging and support pock marks for UV resin, and no grainy...

The pin crimped on the end of the cable just goes straight into the ground of a standard 3 prong outlet, as shown on the webpage. I would say it's probably worth exploring crimping your own wires if you want something more custom. Learning to crimp wires of all sorts might be one of the most...

I just grabbed one of these grounding wires (I think they're normally used in appliances and RV applications), connected it to the screw terminal ground point on the back of the cab, zip tied the cable to my existing power cable, and called it a day. I got the cable on ebay several years back...
