most of the thomson sets perform ok but are not reliable.
tuner on board troubles still keep me busy.and those dammed gemstar modules that are a real troublemaker.
and 90-present zeniths esp projection are pure unadulterated junk.the new ones are goldstar so maybe they will at least last a few years without crt death.zenith had been circling the drain since about 90 due to bad crt's that they could not or didnt care to improve.otoh you mentioned panasonic.
i get those in but are usually 8 years old + and just a few bad caps or solder joints.yes rca used to mean something in the old days but the last really good one was the ctc169.
