Good SCOAR!
That takes me way back to the arcades when I used to rinse that cab.

Well the exterior is.

That thing is a beauty! Congrats on the pickup!

Awesome stuff! Where do you live so that I can visit?

Skykid · Post by **Skykid** » Thu Sep 18, 2014 5:22 am

Lol, the very first thing that went through my head when I saw the pics appear in the OP were "Oh you lucky motherf***er..."

And you are! Congratulations.

Wow, look f*cking amazing. Congratulations!

Sinful · Post by **Sinful** » Fri Sep 19, 2014 3:37 pm

Wow. You lucky. You very, very lucky.

I always wondered why I never heard of anyone here every getting a Darius super widerscreen cabinet? Seems like the ultimate Arcade experience to me... man, I got to get a bigger place and I got to get my hand on all the Darius Arcade games already... even before I get any of the Gradius ones...

alamone · Post by **alamone** » Fri Sep 19, 2014 10:52 pm

Monitors look like in great condition too, colors are consistent across all three.
How did you find this? Awesome pickup.

I'd love to have a DBAC cab but due to logistics, space, etc. I've only got the PCB.
I also have a Darius 2 PCB and a non-working Darius 1.

Just bought my first house and finally have room for a cab. This post gives me hope for the future.

Im amazed there is another one in the photo behind it.

chempop · Post by **chempop** » Sat Sep 20, 2014 2:29 am

My brain just assumed it was a reflection... could it be a second?!?

exidy · Post by **exidy** » Sat Sep 20, 2014 2:46 am

Yeah I have two of them. One of them is water damaged, I just picked it up for parts.

rjosal · Post by **rjosal** » Sat Sep 20, 2014 2:59 am

I saw that too.

It's in bad shape, but it's just what I'm looking for. Maybe you saw that thread I posted looking for dimensions on this cab so I could build one. This meets that need and then some. So hopefully in the near future there will be a restoration/rebuilding thread for this. And I'll hopefully produce some schematics for this too.

Unbeliviebly nice condition cabinet there exity. Congrats! Do you know what size monitors the cabinet is using?

I would be very interested in seeing detailed cab designs.

Darius comes with 3x 13" monitors. They are all k7000 wells gardners.

The back monitor pops off for shipping and slides inside the game.
