Another four years later I got an Amiga 500 (1989) and bought the classic Amiga color monitor which still serves me from time to time (for an Apple IIgs). It really was a great monitor at the time, not only getting along with 50 Hz video, but also 60 Hz (can't display NTSC but it accepts RGB analog which works well with several pieces of US or Japanese hardware). It probably is the most frequently used retro monitor today.
The Amiga 1084S is the one vintage monitor I have out at all times. It does NTSC and PAL, and has composite, RGB and one other input that slips my mind at the moment. Beyond straight up composite, I also have a cable specific to my C-128, which came with, and one for my Amigas, which also came with it.
I'm curious how you use with a IIgs? I use my IIgs with a genuine IIgs monitor. Do you have a special cable to get it work on the 1084S? It would certainly save me some hassle to use one of my 1084's than the IIgs monitor all the time.
