No, it really depends on the multisync monitor. I have an EIZO 9060S at
home and it workes with ALL modes perfectly well and has a beautiful, sharp
image. 
The Taxan monitor doesn't show the 'normal' modes beacuse in these modes the
VIDC clock is changed back to 24Mhz. There are modules though, that leave the
VIDC clock at 36Mhz also in the normal modes, so the Taxan ( or EIZO 9070 )
can synchronize. I don't know about the horizontal scan frequency range of the
NEC 3D but if it doesn't synchronize at 15.xx kHz then you need a module that
leaves the VIDC clock at 36MHz. (Your eyes will also be happy, becuase the
frame rate goes up to 75Hz and the image doesn't flicker anymore).
