Amiga 600 to LCD monitor
« on: December 06, 2012, 08:59:53 PM »
Hi guys,
 
Please bare with me if this is discussed before. I recently went bankrupt after buying some amigas on ebay and local auction websites.
 
I recently scored a nice A600 setup and thats the only amiga I have at my hands now (beside a broken A500). I resisted to buy any commodore or other brands monitor simply because I have absoloutly no room for any CRT like monitor in my room.
 
What is the cheapest way to connect an amiga 600 to a LCD monitor (VGA) that also can give reasonable quality?
 
I got headeache after searching around the web with soloution like ECS indivision that costs an arm and half a leg...

Hi
I just use the red white and yellow cabels, directly from my Amiga to my Lcd/Plamsa screens. And it has a very clear image, so it does not have to cost much :)

OLD analogic LCD-TVs are cheap as a dirt. You should get one for 0-50€, but you also need correctly wired scart cable.

This way you should get clear flicker free picture.

I thought you wanted to connect the Amiga to a standard computer LCD monitor? not a scart TV?

Something like these :

http://www.amigamaniac.com/RGB_to_PAL_NTSC_adapter.html

I have the Amigamaniac setup that works well, not quite as good as a SCART if you use the VGA box.

However Nathan is swamped with orders due to illness and being a one man band so not sure you can still order through him at this point in time.

If I win lotto next weekend I'll buy you an Indivison ECS :-)
