Best Commodore 4000 Monitor?

[mechy]

What is the best Commodore 4000 Monitor? Thanks

The 1960 being a multisync is a good monitor that can do just about all A4000 modes.

The 1950 is multisync and does most all modes.

The 1942 works ok, its technically a bi-sync but does most modes. Note many have bad/ cracked solder joints on the chokes and flyback and need resoldering-I have fixed many with this problem, and once fixed seem to be fine.

SonyCPD-1302 a good trinitron multisync,nice .25 dot pitch, does all modes. Hard to find these days

Nec 3d  Another hard to find monitor that does all modes.

here is a list i found on the net,most of these would work for amiga 15khz+ modes:

Thanks mechy, the 1942 was released in 1993 yet the 1960 which was released in 1992 seems to make use of the 4000 models more being two years older. I'm confused lol

I would'nt put much into when the monitors were made, this has no correlation really. Commodore even used 1084s on their early ibm clones.
it just comes down to what you want to do. Multisyncs can usually do all the possible amiga modes(15khz-31khz+), while 1084s etc will tolerate 15khz modes only. Without a flicker fixer/scan doubler you might likely go crazy with the flicker in some interlaced modes As someone said above, never is not always better. Go by the specs of the monitor to choose whats best for you.
If you want accuracy,a crt is the best thing,since amigas were made for them. some lcd monitors can do 15khz(like the dell 24" st2410l i use) and although it looks good in some ntsc modes, it doesnt handle others.

I have a 17 Liyama here that has the long persistence phosphor.. unfortunately not good for game use etc unless you like trails across the screen,the long persistence was to keep flicker at bay in interlace modes(it was directed to video toaster users).

The monitor you list is a fairly rare puppy.
