I want one of these for a next project sometime in the next few years, more than a CT100. And the figures and results you give above interestingly are the same as my CTC4. John H. |

Your 21-CT-55 looks fantastic, Walter. Very nice work.

Your CTC 9
My CTC11 is in the same blonde cabinet as your 9 I believe, very similar anyway.

The comparison of the CTC2B (21CT55) and my CTC9. MRX37s post above got me interested in which was better. Obviously the CRT in the CTC2B is better than the CTC9 but in person, when not comparing the 2 together they both seem to have pretty good color balance. I paused the title page of a DVD so I had the same image on both sets and I must say as of right now, the old 1954 21CT55 wins, (at least in my estimation). Here are some photos. (After looking at the pictures, I see I didn't have the tint (hue) controls set exactly the same.)

Thanks for doing that. I asked because I've gathered that the CT-100 and the 21CT55 have better color reproduction then everything that came later, so I asked because you own a now working 21CT55 and a later CTC set.
Would love to see it compared to, oh say a Trinitron or some other more modern high end CRT set. |

I've not compared my CT-100 with a Trinitron CRT, but have
compared it with a medium end Sony 55 inch LCE set and a very top end, Adobe-RGB gamut capable monitor, on the same set of still images all made with a high end camera set to Adobe RGB wide gamut. The CT-100 is not perfect, but has always been very close. I have posted comparison images in my CT-100 thread. Recently I have even gotten my CT-100 gray scale better, and they are not even closer. Except in scenes with very bright, very pure yellows or mid-scale magentas they are identical. At low saturations they are almost perfectly the same. As one increases saturation, magentas on the CT-100 start turning violet at normal contrast. At low contrast this does not happen. On those picture you posted, look at the upper left where a spire shaped magenta building appears: on the other set there is no color discriminatiopn for it. P.S.: my avatar does appear essentially identical on the CT100 and the monitor, color wise. |

Walter,
In comparing the 2 set's images, I'm seeing more screen information on the 21CT55 then on the CTC-9. Interesting because the masking on the CTC-9 and it's 21CY tube offered 260 sq. inches of picture. The 21CT55 w/the 21AX. 254 sq. inches. -Steve D.
