I've actually been shopping online for the remaining CRT 16:9 sets. I would have been shopping for them months ago but was distracted by life events...
I liked the concept of the SONY KD34XBR960, with the super fine pitch tube. Many online reviews claim this set gave the finest HDTV picture they have seen. But so many people reported quality defects. I think this set disappeared around 2005. [Note - I'm not a SONY fan, last bought SONY in about 1990]
Then came the KD34XBR970, having a fine-pitch (not super fine) tube. I've never looked at either this or the '960, but reviewers say this set had good quality but picture quality a bit below the '960. I think this '970 was available until spring/summer 2007.
Though the selection now is probably slim/none, I'm going to make the rounds and try to find a CRT 16:9 set.
Does anyone know of any retailers with a presence in Pennsylvania that might still have some inventory?
