The Neo29 can be rotated. Pretty easy. Just lay the cab on it's back and you can easily lift and turn all by yourself.

The Neo19 cannot be rotated.

Are you 100% sure about the 29? It is either one of these or an AstroCity cab I want to pick up ASAP.

I had one, and was asked this very question. I said no, but then found out from the buyer that you CAN flip it after he bought it from me. So, the answer is YES, if it's a Neo candy 29.

Yes, the monitor can be rotated. Lay down the cab, unscrew the nuts and then lift and rotate the monitor. Tighten nuts down and raise the cab off of the ground. Finished.

The US big reds can not be rotated afaik, I have never actually seen one (apart from pics around here) but I recall Briggs confirming this a while ago.

The L&A Aussie big reds like the twins can be rotated..

http://www.hardmvs.com/xml/jpn/jpCabs.htm I should have looked here first. :oh_no: it tells which ons are rotatable.

Good call lill-c. That should be the first source for all neo related questions.

Was wondering the same thing myself...probably to make it more universal to other PCB's.

My thought was that I have a neo candy and neo 25, and there's another neo candy without a monitor that's buyable next month. But, I don't want another neo cab since 8 playable games is enough for me. But, the only cab I have that can swap to vert is 19". I would like to play some vert games on a 25" cab and since this candy is $150 if I have it delivered to a pickup location an hour away....that would be a nice buy. I could easily have another marquee cover for cut down printed large marquees or something. I love the neo candy looks and a mono/stereo switch, mikes dual board, and couple of vert shmups would fit in there nicely.

Anyways, that's why I ask :)
