That would be great if we could actually get some answers from someone who knows firsthand about these cabs. I have to add some other thoughts to my theory, now that I'm refreshing my memory about this stuff. As much as it I feel like these variant cabs could be an early version of the 2nd Gen...

Sorry I'm so late to respond to this, but I haven't checked the forum in a while. Nice to finally hear from someone who has one of these variant Big Blues too. I've been alone on this issue for quite some time. So thanks for the info., and for chiming in. heh My theory now is that our cabs...

And yet another example of the Big Blue cabs with the variant speakers and grills... this time for sale by someone on KLOV... in Illinois. I also found a better picture of the traditional Q-sound cab speaker (from a Big Blue with the tapered, large marquee style like mine), and it shows exactly...

Yes, because they are basically the same as the actual PCB's. The games are all run on actual CPS2 hardware, using all of the actual CPS2 code... just minus the encryption code stuff that relates to the battery issue.

I was using the Summitt Arcade pcb for my setup too, but even though that device is a great help and removes the need to install the diodes... - it still requires all of the wires from the extra pcb kick harnesses to be fitted with special size/type connectors to fit onto the Summitt pcb...

I was gonna say something very similar. Mame is only an option for casual players that just want to have a little fun, and who don't care whether the games are 100% precise, in terms of gameplay. Mame versions tend to have all sorts of gameplay issues, and that just doesn't work for guys that...

Before Darksoft came out with the CPS2 Multi kit, I was in the process of doing exactly that... - I bought a 6-in-1 multi jamma pcb - I bought 6 extra long (6ft), high quality, high priced Jamma extension cables And the most difficult part of the whole process was dealing with the kick...

Well Dynamo may have made some cabs without it... but one strange thing is that my cab: - has the mounting holes for the Q-sound amp and transformer - but it does not have the holes where the more common speaker type brackets normally are mounted. Meaning my cab almost certainly never had...

Well, I had pretty much resigned to just let this speaker and grill issue just rest because there wasn't any new info. or new pics to further the discussion, or to enlighten us. Well... Check out this guys picture of some cabs he has for sale in another thread. He has a Big Blue, and it's the...

Okay, here are a couple of pics of my setup, completely finished now. (with a couple of pics of the cabinets before I finalized the installation of everything) I have my LCD mounted on top of my control panel. Man, I love this CPS2 Multi device! Major props for this "CPS2 Multi pcb", and the...

Heh, I know exactly what you mean. Even though I don't have as much time to play or to have get together's anymore... it still brings me pleasure just having the cabs and my Rec room all set up, nice and ready. I guess it's like our version of a spa, where we can go for some relaxation and...

Thanks bro. Yeah, my gang and I have been hardcore SF's since back in the WW days, and ST is pretty much the pinnacle of SF to us. I've liked a few of the later versions of SF a lot... but ST is tops. So it was only fitting that I eventually setup a dedicated "head-to-head" Super Turbo shrine...

Here is my setup. These pics were taken before I sent my pcb to Mitsurugi to get some stuff fixed and updated. So everything isn't completely assembled and cleaned up yet, but the basic gist of it is here. This will be the pride and joy of my Rec room. Much thanks to Darksoft and Mitsurugi...

Oh, okay. Otherwise the cabinet/system has to be turned off, and then back on every time we change games. I get it. So I guess it boils down to how often each person plans to switch games, and how much wear and tear comes from powering off/on, however many times. Me personally, I don't think...

Hey guys, sorry if I missed something... but what is this AUTO-Reset business all about? I tried to browse back a few pages to find out what it means, but I didn't see any explanation. What is it and what's it's function and purpose? Is it necessary? Thanks
