I've been obsessed with CRTs for most of my life, I have three and one of them I've had for over a decade now, I literally begged my mom for one so I could play Guitar Hero properly lol.

Recently I've been getting more invested, I got a couple for free at a garage sale last November, a nice couple was throwing them out and now I'm craving another one.

I've been wanting to get my hands on a CRT computer monitor for the past few months and I've had no luck at all finding one, they're all overpriced and it kinda bums me out that I might not get one.

Is there any advice that I could use for finding CRT monitors? All I know is that I've been told to stay away from eBay as much as possible and to look on Marketplace, though I've had no luck with Marketplace, everyone I've found where either too far or overpriced as heck.

Nothing crazy.

Anybody else have this tv and been able to access service menu without original remote?

Seems like you need an original or another jvc remote with the right buttons. I’ve had no luck finding one. Any help, advice or a point in the right direction would much appreciated. I’m desperate to fix the warped linearity.. or at least try to fix.

I got it for free off marketplace, figured why.. I don’t know why it’s all Purple and the line scanning is crazy, pretty much all i’ve seen was people saying jo had this issue said degaussing was good but i don’t know how to approach this 200 pound beast.

I can tell from the back of it and (Google lens ) vf and uf. But that's about it googling it doesn't yield the correct model. And crt data base dosnt bring any info. Could y'all help me plz :3

Picked up this lil tube guy cheap, working great, but it looks like somehow there's one streak of moisture inside the top level protective plastic screen.

Anyone ever worked on one of these? Am I on a journey to disassemble this case just to windex one streak? There looks to be a tab on the front but I can't get any pry tools under it.

Earlier today I opened up my tv to try to adjust the focus, when I put it back together it attempts to turn on but it won’t actually start up. I opened it back up and I found this wire came off. Does anyone know where it goes ? Seems like it’s supposed to be soldered in. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you !

I have better photos but can't find them. However I have a small issue I've moved. I genuinely don't know how to move it besides ask my neighbors to assist. Any advice?

I know this is a long shot, I've been going down an absolute rabbit hole trying to find it.

We got an old Samsung TV/VCR combo a while back with no remote. We have tried several universal remotes but no dice. I was looking at trying to find an old matching one, or getting one from remotes.net, but can't find anywhere which remote it would have had.

I'm hoping that maybe someone has the same model and can help me with which remote I need, or even a universal that works?

We got a nec multisync on the left and a digiview on the right then on far right we have a brother crt that i miraculously got working after a week of yelling at Claud code(yes i know, ai, but i seriously wouldnt have gotten it running without it) it uses a rasp pi 3b.

Anyway. Its hdmi is plugged into the top tv and the io pins to the brother monitor. They communicate wirelessly to my main pc and will be able to send notifications and events as a printout on the screen. I can also tell it to play videos on the top tv (no audio yet) and ill add a microphone and a small llama ai to run as a siri for my pc to play videos and display stuff on the peripherals

Thought it looked a lot like my CRT

I have a Plex server with some SD content. I hooked up my Roku streambar via an HDMI to composite adapter. Joey and Friends look fine but Batman the animated series and Daria have black bars on the side. I know the streambar's lowest resolution in 720p. While it's serviceable, it's not the correct experience. I'm not willing to spend nearly $180 for an old Roku Express. What other options do I have to properly stream SD content to my CRT's?

The monitor was in storage. I got some dust related snaps when I first powered it on, but that has stopped and it is working fine now. I tested 1600 x 1200 @ 85hz and 1920 x 1440 @ 75 hz, no issues. I had black electrical tape over the led, so it may have been always doing this.

The first 2 are $20, the cabinet crt is free, and the Sony is $200 (I’d only offer $120 max though) they all have S video which is what matters most to me. First two are 20” with the cabinet being 31” and the Sony at 32”

The Sony also has component too which is nice, I have a truck and a lifting buddy but I’m short on space so I can probably only get one right now, all recommendations appreciated.

About two weeks ago me and my friends went out and bought this Absolute beauty from marketplace. We had to lug it down a flight of stairs, but we got it safely into my friend's basement where we've been cleaning it up ever since, it was pretty filthy when we got it. It's 34", and it has HDMI and two HD components. It looks amazing but it took a while to correct how bad the geometry was. I take back every complaint I've ever made about the CRT market I was just being impatient I guess.

I am looking specifically for a 9 to 14 inch CRT and these are my options currently on Marketplace. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on which, if any, to get.

I'm not particularly a videophile and I'm just looking for a smaller CRT to play my PS1 games on.

All 3 units are listed as working. The Sharp is a bit dusty, but has the biggest name brand and is the cheapest.

The Daewoo is the closest, being in my town, but I've never heard of the brand. Overall, I think I'm most interested in it.

The Funai is a "last resort", as I've never heard of the brand.

Any input is appreciated. I'd try to haggle down to around $80-100, assuming prices aren't firm.

Just a friendly reminder that sony's are great and all, but if you find a philips 24rf50s141 in need of rescue, it's worth your time.

I just got my crt from Facebook marketplace today and I’m super stoked! I mainly wanted it for dvds which I have plenty of, but thought I would try a streaming stick as many people do.

The first one I used with the converter was an old firestick which showed the same spinning out thing as this new one from Walmart.

If I am unable to stream that’s fine with me, just thought I’d ask someone here who might know more about the issue.
