Hi folks,
I have two of the aforementioned monitors. One has a new flyback and new power switch, as well as some other new bits, but a damaged screen, there seems to be some phosphor damage, and one or two not insignificant scratches. The other is in poor condition, but is barely used (apparently) and the tube is in good condition. Speakers are broken, case is in bad shape etc as well as having flyback failure, HOT failure etc. So I was considering swapping the tube from one to the other. My question is, is it better to keep the yoke and tube together, along with all the other electronics, so swap out the main board/neckboard too, or would it be simpler and perhaps better to swap soley the tubes, and keep all the electronics in the monitors the same?
I appreciate this might seem like a lot of effort, but well with everything going on, I need something to do!
Cheers.
