32assassin Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 it all depends on what you wan't, the 2 screen set up ( single monitor for backglass) works great and is the cheapest option. their are more back-glass files available compared to the 3 screen set up. Although more 3 screen files are being made. The 3 screen set up is a more authentic set up. get the smallest LCD monitor you can find. The "real" DMD file you are talking bout will run you anywhere from $300-$500. http://www.pindmd.com/default.php?ref=vpforums this is why allot of people use old 13-17 inch LCD monitors for their DMD displays.
