a500 monitors

Check out Big Book of Amiga Hardware using keyword search 1084s for specs on the Monitor itself, and near every piece of Amiga hardware built.

You can check out the flicker fixers as an alternative. I use a PC monitor on my A500 via an ICD scan doubler.

You can also use the A520 TV Modulator to hook up your Amiga to a television. I have seen a number of these for sale on eBay.

Now, seriously, a scandoubler costs rather much, doesn't it?

(and it couldn't even show AGA, just like almost 95% of the other crappy internal scandoublers for the A1200 or any other AGA Amiga).

Yes a scandoubler seems to be too expensive for basic gamimg. I didn't realise that until I looked on eBay! I guess I lucked in when I got mine. It was installed on an A500 I got for free. I find that it is great for displaying the Workbench in interlace mode. For games the colors are a little off, but not much different on an A500.

I was not aware of the AGA limitation on the higher end machines (like the A1200).

Here is an RGB Scart cable :RGB cable on eBay

This is what you need for a TV, which may be your cheapest solution: A520 on eBay.

If you want to use a modern PC (CRT) monitor you need an expensive flicker fixer/scandoubler.

I am not sure if it will work with LCD.
