I don't really like Trinitron CRTs... their colors just don't look good to me and they tend to have a short lifetime...
Also, Sony TVs tend to be excessively complex, service access to some parts of the chassis is often poor, and they usually have lots of expensive (and now often unobtanium) custom parts...

Maybe it was simply that Sony sets didn't have the control range to be adjusted out of linearity and other sets did. Sony sets also seemed to be much better controlling edge overshoot than others.
