Today is #ultrastreetfighter4 day because my poster & my move lists arrived today. Going to frame the mini poster above my #popeye cab. Probably not going to install the marquees onto the #vewlix. I just wanted to add the move list to spruce up the cab. #arcade #gaming #collecting #taitotypex2 #originalhardware

#taito #vewlix #diamondblue #controlpanel swap. Man, this machine looks so much better with a vewlix panel.

#arcade update 2024: I comfortably fitted 10 cabs in my area. Work in progress is still the #taito #vewlix: received the new control panel but waiting on new buttons. #gaming

Wiped down the cab, quick cleaned the display, & powered up the #vewlix. Prefer new buttons which won’t arrive later next week, so I had to pull from my spare bin. Fixed the audio issues & now it’s working! If I have time, I’m gonna rebuilt these sticks, they need them. #taito #arcade #gaming

Unwrapped & started assembling my #taito #vewlix #diamondblue. Installed a #taitotypex2 core & temp removed the #fastio & swapped with#jvs L i/o board. Still need to get a power cord. It’s getting late, time for sleep. Will clean, swap the control panel & test tomorrow. #arcade #gaming

Created my own move list/marquee designs for #StreetFighter6 to use on my #vewlix arcade cabinet. #movelist

A really great look at modifying a #Chewlix #Vewlix #arcade machine just like mine. I didn't go through everything that he has, but quite a lot of it. He does a really great job of going through everything. #retrogaming #videogames #fgc

For those of you interested in how I've modified my #Chewlix #Vewlix #arcade machine, I'm going to point you to this video here. It's not my video, but I've done most of the same mods that this guy has, just slowly over many, many months. #retrogaming

Devoting today to replacing the speakers in my #Chewlix arcade machine. For those unfamiliar, the Chewlix is so named because they are Chinese made clones of the popular Taito Vewlix sitdown arcade cabinets used in many Japanese arcades.

I'll also be confirming if my current speakers are daisy-chained in mono as I've been trying to get stereo audio and have already replaced the amp with another one suggested by the Chewlix owners group on Facebook.

We've got 4x Dayton Audio 3" full-range poly cube drivers bought this past week from a local retailer. $60 each + shipping from Amazon but I was able to pick them up for $18.50 each instead. Hard to complain about those savings. It's incredible how heavy they are in my hands.

The bad news is that I'll need to disassemble a good portion of the cab to get to the speakers. They look like they can be unscrewed from the front however that's just the look they went for. I'm not really looking forward to taking so much of it apart, however on the end, I know I'll learn more about the machine and the audio will be far better so it will be worthwhile.
