    What sort of stand did you get with yours? Can you post pictures?

    I've spent hours searching for one for mine but I'm not 100% sure of what would fit the mounting holes properly. Pioneer couldn't tell me either!

      It's in bits in the garage, but I'll try and take some photos for you. There is basically a big metal floor piece, inside which two large metal cylinders (maybe 5' tall) stand. A bracket slides up and down these tubes, fixed at the desired height with alan key nuts. The frontside of the bracket had some bits of wood attached for extra support - the viewing angle could be tilted forward or back. There is some pretty heavy duty metal framework on the back of the tv set itself - does yours have this?

      Also, what sort of cabling are you using with yours - and with what console inputs - JP or Euro Scarts if you use them? Cheers

        Here you go Decider-VT, though you'll have to piece it together in your mind! It's made by Unicol, Oxford.

          Ah, so it's a cantilever stand? (Thanks for posting the pictures!)

          Mine don't have those extra bits of metal framework, so I'm assuming that they're part of your stand.

          I've just been swapping VGA cables from PC>360 and back again with mine, until I get my VGA switches unpacked and properly set up. Once I've done this I'll be running my XRGB3 units into it via VGA as well.

            Ah, so no scart connections then. I'm trying to find out which cables I need to hook up my consoles that aren't VGA:

            Saturn JP Scart
            Snes US Scart
            Neo Geo CD JP S-Video
            PS1 PAL Scart
            PS2 PAL Scart/Component
            Xbox PAL Scart (might have a VGA cable for this, can't remember)
            Gamecube PAL Scart
            Wii PAL Component

            I saw the retrogaming cables site selling cables for the Sony BVM/PVM sets (here) and also some homemade stuff on shmups.com, such as this and this, but all sellers warn that they're wired Euro Scart NOT Japanese 21 pin RGB. I'm also wondering if Component cables can be plugged straight into the monitor using BNC>RCA adapters.

                I’m looking at replacing my Trinitron with one of those space-saving B&Os. Any particular ones to look out for? Looking for ~25” size 4:3.
