Recommend a DMD screen

[Phantom Spaceman]

Building a cabinet, thinking of a third screen for a DMD. What do you use?

[AcadDude]

I use a two monitor setup.. The DMD area is combined on the second monitor with the backglass.

I have a custom smaller backbox/cab with a 10.1” ips display ( like a smaller Stern like display) from Waveshare:

They they have bigger displays my local pinball parts dealer have a nice sized lcd:

Have not seen it running so dont know about quality. Seen a lot of people put 15” monitors down de backbox/cab showing only the top part of the screen.

That looks great - that's pretty much what I'm going for. I have a dell monitor that I'm using for the backglass display - beneath that, I want to put a DMD between a pair of car speakers. Your setup is beautiful!

I was considering that, but I've decided to do a full back box, with 2 monitors(1 small) and a small amplified speaker system.

Thanks, I like it and suits my needs, have a look at https://www.waveshare.com/product/modules/oleds-lcds/raspberry-pi-lcd.htm the one I got is:
10.1inch HDMI LCD (B) (with case) (for Europe), 1280×800, IPS
SKU: 11769

If you can go with an IPS screen the LCD's they sell are OK but suffer backlight glare when in portrait. I ordered with them directly but you might run into custom duties... ( they might try and help you with that ) but some of the screens are sold on Amazon too.

My backglass screen is 23" for size reference
