Ouch. That is definitely going to make trying to time being at home a lot harder.

The speakers need to be shielded. The wires are already in the cab. Those are probably going to cause interference with the monitor.
should be ms9 in chassis. Easy to plug power pins direct to wall 120v for check health. Can easily alligator clip to pins of you have no test connector. Will give you all most important info even no video in. Should be able to see preliminary b+ function, raster vertical retrace from screen volt, colour drives by short cathodes on neck, etc to give basic Mon health. If you have all those is safer assumption Mon is decent and if problem on video line would be not likely hard fix.

The speaker I pulled didn't have any mold, fortunately.
With the generosity of a friend I am back in business with a working tube (actually we upgraded my other Egret II's monitor, and took that one and trickled it down to this cabinet.)
Just need to get the CP in order and get the marquee lighting up.

More pics. The Domy, Windy, and one of the Egrets. I thought I took pics of both Egrets, but apparently not. This is definitely the better of the two E2's (minus the weird monitor line).
Edit: I'm an idiot, and that's okay.
I have a few spare 29" tubes in my storage. Hopefully one will fit the curvature of the Windy so 8bit has something better.
Domy
- It has the cup holder! I don't think any cups smaller than those GIANT old 100oz+ McDonald's cups would fit in there though, it's HUGE
- Minor rust through-out
- Real nice CP
- Monitor is 100% burn-free
- Some sticker peeling around the CP area.
- PCB holder has some mold, rest of the cab does not
- Overall nicer than I'd have ever expected for such a big cab
Q25
- mold from about 2.5" from the base down. This makes me agree with Cereth's flooding guess. Above that mark is A-OK
- 100% burn-free monitor
- Lots of rust on the coin return area and footrest
- Has the between-the-speakers marquee but not the big boy one up top
- CP is in excellent shape as are all the plastics
And FWIW, the dimensions on Hard--Candy and AO are incorrect for the Domy Theater.

Line? Do you mean on the top of the screen?
...is your marquee light on? because the E2 lets light leak into the top of the tube.

....probably? I'm sick, and tired. Leave me alone. Hahahaha. Jesus, that line's above the edge of the screen even... IT'S BEEN A LONG FEW DAYS.
Neither of the other 2 do that though, so uh, I didn't realize that's a common issue.

heh, it happens. On my astro and E2 I used a little foil tape and did some light insulation behind the monitor bezel. That light leak drives me nuts.

I think the giant cup holder is for an ashtray

That is not a cup holder @rewrite on the Domy, that is for holding a metal flying saucer type ashtray.
That makes a lot more sense.
But is far less useful for me since I don't smoke.

@PascalP I'll be sure to get him the dimensions when I get done. Thanks for pointing that out!
The Domy PSU seems good, just need to figure out how to turn it down. The monitor is not getting power though, I pulled the connector and get 0v on AC, so there's a wiring issue to be hunted for.
The Q25 has a gorgeous picture though, and I found the big marquee deep inside.
Update:
Domy chassis gets power now, but no neck glow. So still dead. Still not certain where to turn down 5v and not willing to toss in a board at 5.52v, ha.
