Questions regarding Egret 3

Post by Shadolf »

I have some Egret 3 questions:

1. What monitor type/types are used?
2. Is the monitor flat tube only or are there E3 with curved tube too?
3. How difficult and exprnsive is it to get a replacement chassis and/or flyback?
4. E3 is Jamma only, right?
5. E3 has no sound amp, right?
6. How can I differ between original and repro cp/cpo? In case its a "good" repro.

1. They Wei-ya chassis with Samsung Tube is the most common, the Toshiba chassi/tube combo is rare.
2. Flat only.
3. If Toshiba chassis then you can find them on YJ for around 6000 yen.
4. Jamma and half JVS.
5. Correct.
6. You need to know how an original looks like, very often they are easy to spot on the thickness of the printed layer and the extra plate for the joystick mount.
