1 .Does anyone here own a Sony CRT monitor?

2. Which model of Sony CRT do you own?

3. If you have a Sony and also have other CRT's
which other ones do you own and how do they compare to the Sony?

3. Do you have any complaints about it?

4. Have you ever compared it to any other CRT's?
How did the comparison go?

I have a 21" Sony GDM-F500R. One of the last .22 pitch flagships Sony produced. Technology going backwards now... Do a search on google and you will be amazed to find NO-ONE is making <.24 pitch CRTs anymore

Another Sony G500 owner here.

Reason why I got it was it has 5BNC inputs. I will never buy a CRT monitor without 5BNC inputs-- The difference in image quality is very noticible.

Sony 19" 420GS and Dell 21" P1130 (G520 clone). The 420GS (about 6 years old) is starting to show it's age, but otherwise, I haven't had any problem with these monitors. The P1130 is about 3 1/2 years old and has been superb. I used to have NEC's, but their quality started to go down hill in the late 90's and early 00's, so I quit using them.

Owned several Sony Trinitron's. Good quality stuff, but outdone by NEC/Mitsubishi's redux of Trinitron

CPD-G520P. Best monitor I've ever seen. (Except for the GDM-F500R)
Wish I still had room for it.

Yes, back in the mid 90's when a 15" Sony Trinitron is $600+. That's all I can remember. The tube went crazy and start showing a pink mask in 3-4 years.
