18 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- A monitor bracket system from Transvideo enables mounting LCD monitors like the CinemonitorHD or HD8 to Master Series rigs without requiring modifications to the rig itself.
- The bracket incorporates two 20cm carbon rods that reduce vibrations and improve stability while allowing the rig to be balanced without compromise.
- The system is described as very sturdy and rigid, with the rods providing structural strength despite being longer than strictly necessary.
- The bracket kit includes a master bridge, an 89/16mm bridge, a spigot, a clamp for slide, and two 20cm carbon rods.
- Third-party shops indicated willingness to manufacture universal monitor brackets adaptable to different monitor brands for Master Series rigs.
Depends on
- The bracket was designed specifically for Transvideo monitors and its compatibility with other brands like Marshall was questioned and unresolved in the discussion.
- Additional pictures showing detailed mount configuration were promised but not included in this thread.
- The system was not yet listed on the manufacturer's website at the time of discussion.
- Pricing and availability information provided is from 2008 and may not reflect current market conditions.
