Check the Apple II FAQ here:
http://home.swbell.net/rubywand/Csa2MONITOR.html#015

It lists the Amiga monitors that can be used with the IIgs and the
cabling required. You will almost surely need to roll your own cable.
I have done this for Commodore 1084 monitors (as have others on here)
and they work well.

Also, if any of your Amiga monitors have a SCART input, details for
purchasing a pre-made cable, or for rolling your own, can be found
here:

Hope this helps!
