I have the Sony 34" XBR series flat CRT with the dual tuner and Super Fine Pitch CRT. It is the only one they made with the tuner/CRT combo. The color rendition is spectacular. Geometry was a bit off until I figured out the service menu. Had to replace one board for the usual 7-blink death. I saved it to change the chips some day. While it was open, I set the internal focus and did more in the menu. It is HD but not quite up to a modern version. I have seen them on Craigslist for free. Just carry away all 200 pounds.

And you can also look for the Samsung SIR series of tuners. Quite good here with a rooftop antenna and 30 miles from the sticks. 30+ channels on component and DVI.
