Trinitrons are nice and all but personally I prefer my 36" HD ready RCA home theater T/T PIP.
Basically Sony Trinitrons and RCA Home Theater CRTs are the best bet for picture and sound.
I got super psyched cause I won one of those clear prison TVs off of ebay super cheap and it was local pick up, totally slipped my mind that these things are probably bare bones and have no hook ups whatsoever...oh well, It could have been awesome, now its my garage TV..... Clear TV's FTW!!!!!!!!
