Go ahead and get yourself the "best" CRT monitor out there, and compare it to an 8K 240 hz display you dip-shit

>Why the fuck does colors look better on my old CRT monitor than on my LED TV?
Because we didn't move to LCD for the better picture quality, it was because they're lighter and more compact which means cheaper to ship.

>>57076785
because your led tv a shit?

my 60 inch sony led has great colors. and my 27 inch ips monitor has far better colors than my trinitron i play old vidya games on

CRTs generally have better gamut than LCDs since they can actually separate their color channels properly.

The contrast ratios for LCDs only apply on large scale features, and substantial light leakage between adjacent subpixels limits maximum saturation.

>he bought a TN """LED""" TV
Get the fuck out of here, idiot

I'm surprised nobody mentioned the one advantage CRT has over LCD or even OLED, which is multi-resolution support. Use an LCD or OLED monitor at anything other than native resolution and it comes out a blurry mess. Due to the analog nature of CRT monitors you get a sharp image as long as the resolution's at or below dot pitch.

Is the TFT monitor an urban myth or something?

Hey, it's >>57078237
here
Turns out the moniter is a 15" dell tft lcd display
if you make that feel better

Where can I get some old CRT monitors to get that laindad setup?

>>57076785
"LED TV" is just marketing speak for "LED-backlit LCD TV"
an LED TV can be just as shit quality-wise as older CCFL-backlit LCD TV's

>>57078796
Not sure if you're actually ignorant or baiting, since I'm not sure how clear google is on the topic, but I don't believe that there has ever been a liquid crystal display (LCD) on the market that wasn't a thin film transistor (TFT) design.

CRTs also don't have that sample-and-hold blur.
