Then yours is definately not a CRT. If it's not a Plasma/LCD, it's one of those huge rear-projection TVs then and they don't weigh that much.

Shipping CRTs is probably not worth it especially if it's not a widescreen one. 36" Widescreen, maybe...

For SD-resolutions and scaling, nothing beats a CRT. If only they had more HD capable CRTs here in Europe I would not hesitate to buy one. LCD/Plasmas are looking really good in Full HD resolutions though. Contrast is getting better every year and so is color gradients as well. Don't see that much banding anymore.

It was a KV36HQ100B for almost nothing (100£) :-o
You can see a review of this set HERE

Beats out the crap of practically any current LCD/Plasma in black level.
On the other hand, the new Panasonic line is coming out as we speak and new models are said have came up almost on par with Pioneers Kuru line, which is probably the only one with black levels like a good CRT but the price is huge.

Still, all these things, no matter how good they are, will show a pretty poor image with standard definition sources.


Very nice! Definately a keeper.
