[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 278823, member: 134"] I'll come clean, it's hard for me to know what the important questions regarding cabinet mode are since I don't have a cabinet (donations are welcome though!). I've seen some interesting 'non cabinet' configurations I might pursue though. I have a spare 4:3 monitor that I might mount to my wall for use as a backglass, and then if I attached my monitor on an arm I could maybe rotate and arm it flat to my desk, so that it's cabinet in form. I'm seriously considering building the PinSim Jeremy Williams put specs up for as that would be the perfect controller to give that cabinet without a cabinet feel. My buddy does woodwork, 3D printing, and has built custom controllers before so my lack of construction ability won't be an issue. This way I keep my computer setup at my desk functional for normal activity, but in the same space can enjoy the benefits of cab style play. I guess you'll know when it happens when I start asking a bazillion questions about cabs to Zen!

I'd probably also want in addition to the plunger, a button style plunge. [IMG]https://d2rormqr1qwzpz.cloudfront.net/photos/2016/05/09/87750-pinsimv2_1.jpg[/IMG] This is the sort of arm I'm thinking.
