You should try the NEC 3D, which scans down to 15KHz.

 Examples of (older) monitors that can also be used are: Taxan 775, Eizo 2060S, Acorn AKF18, Acorn AKF50, Philips CM8833, Philips CM11342.

Why not just stick to ScanDoubler-type devices?

ScanDoubler
"This unit connects to the RGB port of the Amiga and provides it with both a scandoubler and a flickerfixer. The scandoubler allows you to connect PC SVGA monitors by doubling the Amigas standard 15.5Khz to the 31Khz required by VGA. The flicker fixer part allows you to display interlaced screenmodes without flicker."


ScanMagic
"An internal scandoubler designed for installation in an A4000 or A1200."

Other models:
ScanMagic external
FlickerMagic

The simple answer is- a television studio in a box
Slightly longer answer- " Video Toaster is an on-line desktop video editing system that includes all the features you need to create professional video productions."

Btw, can you still buy bran new monitors dedicated for the Amiga? say in 19inch? without having to buy scan doublers etc.

No!
