Is anyone else here stockpiling CRT televisions ?

I'm a huge fan of the Sony Trinitron line of TVs. In the last video production studio I ran, there was a small Trinitron from the 1980's that was abused to Hell but still had a fantastic picture.

I've got a 2001 27" Sony Trinitron ... they all look the same regardless of size. I got it at a pawn in 2002 and it has just a great picture.

I don't really know if the flat screen FD Trinitrons are any good. I know Sony and JVC were the last to get out of the CRT market and had several HDTV CRT monitors. Sony Trinitrons came in Super Fine Pitch 1440x1080i, Hi-Scan 853x1080i, WEGA 16:9 Enhanced 480i, and WEGA 480i at the very end.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

UNCLEAN! UNCLEAN!

We had the same damn one for six years. It was horrible. Blinking black picture with a permanent green tinge. What a piece.

I wish it worked right, its just using up space in our house... Also, it weighs a LOT.

Thanks for the info on the Sony widescreen tubes. I haven't seen a single one yet, but I'll keep that distinction in mind. Last one I came across was the 32" Phillips that many retail stores had a few years back. I balked, because I wasn't sure of the quality. I kinda regret it now though. It was only $200 and it would have been a decent tide over. Oh well.
