That's the same sound mine makes. Maybe link the video in the AO thread I started too?
Edit: I went ahead and updated the AO thread here.

Yup, my cabs were delivered through STI and not part of the East Coast group shipment though - probably the same for @radiantsvgun.
Thanks! I can't wait to clean up the cab and get a shmup going on it.

I see that it's mentioned about the beeping, but is there a clicking sound too? And is there any neck glow and/or static on the screen?
I had a clicking chassis a while back, with no screen static of neck glow, and i'm sorry to say it was thought that the flyback was faulty. A replacement chassis was my resolution.

No clicking on mine, just the beeping. No neck glow. I reached out to Sharp Image Repair and they have agreed to look at it for me.
Worst case scenerio, the Sanwa PFX goes in the Windy and I have to figure out a bezel solution.
Have you already pulled the chassis? Is it possible there is a 100v / 240v switch setting somewhere?

If there was a switch for voltage change, all of them would have been set like that. The fact that some got working one's and some didn't just means they weren't tested.
Further backed up by the several dead on arrival E2s.

Nothing like yours. There was some clicking at the start. I use I/O, Video, and audio #1

It's the Tosh PB7534. Here's a video of the sounds mine makes:
So it does the constant beeping and a "turning over" sound that I wouldn't exactly describe as "clicking" but maybe?

Flyback chirp and a bad HOT.
+1.
Can just replace the HOT and do a recap (since you're there anyway, and you don't want to add wear to the newly installed HOT or you'll be buying another in 3 months) and hope that everything takes care of itself then.
The flyback, you can try tightening the screws that mount it to the chassis to eliminate some of the squealing. Could just be age, but sometimes when they're loose from the chassis PCB that can cause that. When possible it's best to do this when it's on (very carefully) so you can gauge the change in sound as you turn different screws.
So the HOT would make that "turning over" sound not the flyback on the Windy?
On another note, I braved the rats nest of wires in the New Net City today and removed it all. Pics here: https://imgur.com/a/MTPmXYY
The coin counter reads 47! The cab is quite clean and good looking overall, except the PCB area. I took out the mold ridden PCB board and will cut a new one. Going to do a deep cleaning of the PCB area this weekend.
Monitor looks great, it's a PFX rather than the Tosh PF but I'm quite happy with it.

Right. Should be able to prove that by rolling a piece of paper like a tube, and putting it over the HOT and putting your ear on the other end, if that makes sense. If it were the flyback I'd be /very/ surprised. But hunt around by isolating different components on the chassis that way, and you'll find out for sure. That rear hatch should make it fairly easy if you get a larger than notebook piece of paper.
Hurrah for low coin count!
The Domy Theater has over 140,000!
Post pics of the HOT, its location, and the part number when you guys find out. Mine chirps too, collapses horizontally, rebounds, the repeats. Gotta be the HOT? Didn't visit the Windy II and Egret II this week. Will do that when my buddy gets back next week. Will pull the chassis then.
Not looking forward to recapping this one. 51 total caps!!
