We have exhibited twice already with Commodore 1702monitors. It gets really difficult to haul around and maintain 9 working 1702 monitors. We had to use 1x 1902 and 8x 1702 last time because we couldn't borrow a 1702 from someone else. We want to change it up and make it easier to exhibit. The first time we used 1702/C64/1541 combination. The second time we replaced the 1541 with uIEC SD cards. Now we will replace the 1702 with LCD. And perhaps I will do C64c instead of original C64 breadbin. We are working on getting more LCD and c64c.

It's for his VCF East exhibit, not the museum.
Ahh ok. I still prefer the square Commodore monitors, but for cheap PC speakers, I like to use Logitech S-120 speakers. They are small, only run around $10 and are available from Target/Walmart, etc. The other I use for displays are HP or Dell speakers that are for the monitors themselves. They don't need to mount, and can be found cheap in lots on eBay.
