This may be a dumb question, but here goes...

I have 19" Dynamo cut-corner cab (originally a P.O.W.), and a bunch of different kits to use in it (Ikari, Cal 50, etc) that all have the cut-corner cp on them. Are there any other control panels that would fit on this cabinet aside from the cut-corner ones? Just want to know what my options are.
 
What you have is a Dynamo HS-1 or possibly an HS-2. It came standard with a 19" monitor and the cut corner CP. But before they put the cut corner CPs on them they had rounded CPs. Do a search for early Capcom games like Ghost and Goblins, Magic Sword, 1943, Final Fight, Ikari Warriors, etc.
Basically, you have these options for configurations.
Ghost & Goblins: 1 joystick/ambidextrious 2 buttons, p1, p2
1943: 2 joysticks/2 buttons, p1, p2
Final Fight: 2 joysticks/3 buttons, p1,p2
Ikari Warriors: 2 rotary joysticks/abidextrous 2 buttons, p1, p2
Street Fighter 1 or 2: 2 joysticks/6 buttons, p1, p2

These are the most basic configurations you will find for CPs of HS-1s. Considering that you should be able to swap the monitors between vertical and Horizontal, these should cover most jamma games you will run into. Unfortunately, finding an unhacked cp in good condition is getting harder every year. If only someone would reproduce them in the various configurations.

Also, an angled CP was made for the Dynamo universal cabs. They had a replaceable metal cut out panel that could be swapped for various games. Unfortunately, some of the configurations were cramped and poorly placed.

Hope this helps.
 
you can drop in a forgotten worlds CP into it. Its shorter that than the cut corner CP. I have a few extras...
