I drove down into Virginia the other day to pick up a cassette receiver and CD changer for my car and not far from the guy's house I passed a place that had a bunch of tables out front and one of them had a CRT on it with a big sign on the front that said FREE, I told myself if it was still there on my way home I would stop and throw it in the trunk of the car, but by the time I was heading home, I guess they had closed up shop because I didn't even see any tables anywhere let alone the TV :(

- CRTs are no longer produced because they have inferior picture quality versus LCDs
- CRTs emit dangerous levels of X-rays or other forms of radiation
- CRTs always have easily-visible flicker
- CRTs always cause eyestrain
- CRTs always make a high-pitched squealing noise
- CRTs contain lethal amounts of electricity, even when unplugged
- CRTs need calibration more than two to three times a year
- Overall CRT black levels are not superior to LCDs because ambient light ruins CRT black levels
- Analog CRTs have more processing time than digital LCDs due to poor RAMDAC performance
- Afterimages caused by phosphor decay are extremely annoying and are a significant downside of CRTs
- Sending an improper mode (resolution or refresh rate) to a CRT can cause permanent damage
- CRTs cannot have touchscreens
- 4:3 is so bad that nobody should use a non-widescreen CRT
- The Sony GDM-FW900 is the only CRT worth owning
- Curved CRTs have objectively inferior picture quality versus flat CRTs with otherwise equal specifications
- CRTs should not be used because they are heavier and deeper than LCDs
- CRTs have severe reflections because they do not have matte coats
- CRTs can be permanently damaged by nearby magnets
- Analog signals limit a CRT's resolutions and refresh rates and negatively effect picture quality
- Heavy metals are used in CRT glass to reduce radiation

Many zoomers used CRTs. CRTs were still commonplace around the mid to late 2000s. LCDs took over fast, with geometry and resolution being their only positive aspects circa '04. "Flat screen" was the marketing buzzword. CRTs stopped being manufactured late '09, but sales continued into the early 2010s in developing countries like India. The CRT died out much faster in HICs like US or UK, getting sales overtook by LCDs in '05. Then the financial crisis happened and Cannon would have been memed at if they released expensive SED displays. Allegedly, SEDs were used as broadcast monitors in Japan.

Facebook marketplace tend to be good for free TVs. Use picclick.co.uk to search eBay listings better. I got my CRT monitors from a textiles company that went bust and liquidated all assets, years ago for cheap. Call up any old graphic design, textiles or printing companies in your area, and ask if they have high end colour CRT monitors willing to give for free (or sell for a small price). I missed the chance to get a Iiyama Vision Master 505, and a LaCie Electron 22 Blue II.

Japanese engineers were and still are semiconductor gods, the fastest CRT, 2070SB, used a Toshiba 2SC5570 HOT: a triple diffusion NPN BJT. There exist no transistors to this day that can handle the stress of being the horizontal output transistor in these CRTs. HOTs haven't been made in nearly 2 decades.

Nah. 2070SB was budget trash even compared to the CPD-G520's. Virtually all of them suffer from bad linearity and geometry.
It's the Sony GDM-F520 that is the best CRT ever made, the only (relevant) .22mm aperture grille there is.

GDM G520 was definitely sharper, was it not the only 0.22mm aperture grille CRT? The 2070SB did scan slightly faster at 140KHz vs 130KHz with the G520. Those linearity and geometry issues about the late mitsubishi monitors are true, though some of them were fine. The SMPTE-C phosphors used by Sony have just slightly less saturation / smaller colour gamut than the regular P22 phosphors that cover the whole sRGB / BT 709 colour gamut.

Common fault, but precise cause not known. Typically it'll only get worse and worse until the monitor completely kills itself.
Something is arcing or shorting somewhere, but internet is full of nonsense information about what and if anything can be done about it. The only solid first-hand knowledge I have is that on a CPD-G400, the arc happened inside a spark gap overvoltage protection device.
The best thing you can do is dust the insides and hope the monitor doesn't die too soon.

There were 4 .22mm monitors, at least in theory

>The 2070SB did scan slightly faster at 140KHz vs 130KHz with the G520.
The G520's can be overclocked, I've heard people running them at 150khz

>The SMPTE-C phosphors used by Sony have just slightly less saturation / smaller colour gamut than the regular P22 phosphors that cover the whole sRGB / BT 709 colour gamut.
G520 nor F520 use SMPTE-C phosphor. They're both regular old P22.

Also P22 doesn't cover sRGB, P22 CRTs are always short when it comes to red saturation.

That is very impressive, given the secondary breakdown effects associated with switching BJTs at their limit at high collector currents.

I now agree in all aspects, the SONY GDM G520 was the best monitor ever made.

I think I was wrong about SMPTE-C phosphors... I am not sure anymore on their spectral distribution used in other CRTs. I think P22 isn't any specific phosphor, now that I recall, it is just a generic family of phosphors used in CRTs.

Correct, different P22 CRTs have wildly different gamuts and persistence. Most high end monitors have a rather similar gamut though, sRGB-like volume but all primaries shifted away from red.

There was a monitor that did have a gamut above the rest, Mitsubishi RDF225WG. It had something approximating NTSC gamut, and had 140khz. But it's famous for it's green trailing.

>>106567218
Very interesting, thanks. It does make sense why most monitors look similar, given their phosphors are usually all sulfides of zinc, doped with other compounds to get the different colours. My Mitsubishi NSH1157STTUW uses B22 EBU phosphors. I haven't yet come across a service manual that specifies the exact composition.

Funny thing, you can simulate much of the inner works of a crt by timing the use of every pixel individually (required for lightpen interfacing) and it wouldn't be expensive or particularly complicated, but nobody does it anymore because it's an extra thing offering little to zero value to a 2025 normie monitor buyer.

There is the free CRT Beam emulator by Blur Busters, running on shaders. It does greatly improve motion clarity on OLEDs, but it needs a lot of raw Hz, at least 500Hz, to be almost comparable in motion clarity to a CRT. This software approach to emulating the raster has downsides though - the perceived flicker is stronger than on a CRT at any FPS greater than 50Hz, and luminance is reduced significantly, though with HDR on OLEDs, this can be mitigated. Ideally monitor manufacturers would implement this with a user-tunable interface, but none of them know about these advancements or even care to implement them if they did know. Since CRTs won't ever be produced again, the beam emulator is a sort software preservation effort for CRTs.

Then you were one of the many that fell for the LCD monitor marketing in the early 2000s, putting everyone through a fifteen year long dark age, were LCDs with retarded sloth levels of response times quickly turned into the only option. 15 years of using 'flat screen' low contrast LCDs meant for office use. LCDs had higher resolution, better geometry and lasted longer, but their usecases were in offices. At least we have OLED now - but it is 2025, and there is still no technology that matches CRTs in pixel response times and input delay.

Flicker is not perceived at 73Hz or above, on CRT monitors with medium persistence phosphors (most monitors). Phosphor burn-in also is not an issue using X11 windows or any graphical Windows(tm) shell. Phosphor half-life is about twice that of OLEDs at 100 nits luminance, though most do not use their OLED monitors that dim, instead typically more around 200nits, halving longevity. That makes OLEDs 3-4x more burn-in susceptible under typical usage, than phosphors on CRTs.

I think I'm really talking to some kind of low-grade LLM with a context window of around a post or two. My whole issue was that you used meme language in a context it didn't fit, creating a meaning you didn't whatsoever intend.
OP I've seen you post before and how pathetic your language skills are cracks me up every time. You don't really understand the text you write or read, it's genuinely fascinating. Exactly like a lobotomized LLM.

Yes, plasma panels had excellent image quality, they are still the holy grail TV tech for AV enthusiasts. PDPs were very expensive when they came to market around 2003. By 2009 they were nearly the same price as the LCD panels. Still, few were buying plasma. The holy grail PDP was a THX certified 42" 1080p Panasonic. PDPs had higher power consumption, but still had CRT-like image quality (used different phosphors to emit light), with much less glass blooming at higher luminance. CRT and PDP are still the kings at rendering skin tones and colours due to the emission spectra of the phosphors, compared to LED backlit displays and OLEDs/quantum dots. That is one of the reasons AV enthusiasts love PDP and CRTs.

crt trannies are indeed retarded but
>- CRTs are no longer produced
incorrect, you can find new model CRTs for industrial environments and certain commercial applications
>- CRTs emit dangerous levels of X-rays or other forms of radiation
no they dont, it's non-ionizing radiation
>- CRTs cannot have touchscreens
not a real use case but also they can, the "touch" part of a touchscreen is an extra layer applied over top
>- Heavy metals are used in CRT glass to reduce radiation
no theyre not, they use borosilicate glass, not lead glass

If you mean specifically for calibration, no idea (other than Marcie, which's like a 50-something MiB download if you can find it), but these are relly nice test images for other purposes: https://r0k.us/graphics/kodak/

If you get the .PCD's, they can be decoded at much nigher resolutions than what was used for the .PNG's.
