Atari SuperSprint LED upgrade

[letsroe]

Hey All,

Just picked up my first arcade game and it's my old favorite Atari super Sprint. I've done all the repairs and it's working perfectly but I think it needs the bigger screen. I know there's probably 65 posts about how this is done and I've read about the third-party converters to adapt to an LED, but what I can't seem to find is if these adapters properly adjust the screen to work with the newer common widescreen monitors or does it have to be a perfectly square LED? Sorry for being a noob but if anyone can even share some links I'll do the research. Also it looks like a lot of people make some really cheap converters, can anyone recommend a quality made device?

Thanks,

Kevin

When 16x9 screens are used, most will have the monitor retain the 4x3 aspect ratio & cover the black left/right portion with a bezel.

If upgrading SS to a bigger screen, typically, the monitor remains a CRT. The med-res 19" would be "upgraded" to a 25". Some have done this to recreate the SS DELUXE.

I have a couple super sprint boards that I'd let go cheap if you wanted extras. I have no way to test them so I assume they are non working though.
