Is my CRT too sharp?

>>379802307
No, I got it from a surplus auction at the University of Kentucky. For free when I asked a guy who had bought the lot what he was going to do with the old monitor. He said I could just take it. At the time I was looking for an RGB 15khz monitor.

I kept it for a while and planned on making the correct adapter cable, but never got around to it because I found some other RGB monitors not too long after that were larger and easier to work with. Still the image on that small Sony monitor was probably the best I've ever seen on an SD monitor or television.

I think I sold it for $100 shipped. The model # is right there in the image: KX-14CP1. This monitor was used in video production and can often be seen in behind-the-scenes footage of shows produced in the 90s.

And this is an extremely, extremely shitty photo, but it is the only one I have of my time when I owned that monitor. It was taken with a disposable film camera. You can barely make out another Trinitron to the left of it. This one was a CVM. I got three of them at the same time. Ended up giving them to a thrift store. Back then, the CRTs flowed..

Depends on the size of the monitor and how close you sit to it. And how anal retentive you are about such things. I have a 19" CRT designed for 1600x1200 I run 240p on at 120hz and it looks okay.

>>379804058
This actually is my old bedroom, but I was in college at the time. I had so many CRTs I ran out of space in my apartment and had to take some of them home for storage.

At one point I trashed a Mitsubishi XC-3717c because it had a minor flyback issue. It's still sitting on the back of an old truck a quarter mile behind my parents house just rusting away in the rain. It was a $20k monitor in its day.

I found my CRT floating in 2 feet of water when I came back from college. Apparently there was a flood while I was gone & my family didn't check on the house like they said they did. Entire basement was electrified & it took forever to get all the water out. My CRT was floating like a fishing bobber.

>>379803598
I would say it is 550. I pulled that number from... somewhere in my mind. Just sounds right. I found some of the manuals and documentation for a lot of monitor years ago, and there used to be a few hobbyist websites out there that catalogued them have disappeared now. There are actually a lot of PVM and CVM models from the 80s and 90s that I never see any of the retro people using. Ones which look very cool. Can't find the images on google image search anymore.

Actually I am incorrect. The one I sold didn't make it to those photos because the one I owned was a PVM-1390. The one I had had a scratch on the front that was nearly identical and the guy I sold it to seemed like exactly the type to take those photos. But it wasn't him.

The PVM-1390 has a different set of inputs on the side. This is like the one I had.

The light used in CRT monitors is real light but the light used in LCD monitors is artificial light, that's why the picture is better because they use natural light, pretty much the same as the sun

>>379805859
Go to the UK surplus auction the next time they have it. I guarantee you will find something worth buying there.

Warning: the place is a cave and the inside temp in the summer reaches over 100 degrees with very high humidity. Everyone is drenched in sweat and the whole room smells like B.O.

However, sometimes cute women are there too and you get to seen them with that nice sheen of sweat.

My favorite monitor ever is the PVM-1271Q. The small size, 600 lines, great color, ease of rotation, and smoked glass screen along with the cube aesthetic make it pretty much perfect.

>>379806342
>It's just Emulated light

Pretty much, it's just emulated light, it's not even real, that's why LCD monitors are cheaper because they use emulated/artifical light whereas CRT monitors use natural light which is more expensive to manufacture

>pretty much the same as the sun

That's also why CRT monitors give out radiation because they use the same kind of light the sun uses

>>379807110

You know they coated the insides of CRTs with LEAD so the radiation doesn't leak out right? You would get more radiation from eating a banana than playing some 2D game on a CRT for a few hours.

At one point I rotated that XC-3717C and played games in front of it sitting Indian style 3 feet in front of it. It felt a bit strange to me and I was rather conscious of the amount of radiation I was being bathed in. Of course there was no danger at all when you think about it realistically.

Yes, I rotated a 37" monitor.

lold

games looks perfect on systems but trying to do VGA to BNC with CRTemudriver on an AMD 270 in my PC and run MAME is a pain in the ass and it doesnt look "RGB" even though EDID hack has it set to proper resolution


maybe games will look fine through groovymame once they are loaded through the CRT emu driver

who knows

the guy sold me the 2 13 inch for $80 and the 20 was "broken" but when i brought it home, i havent had a single issue.

also snagged a Barco HDM 5049 Plus 17 inch widescreen CRT so im going to use that for Schmups

cant wait to work out the kinks on this fucking CRT driver

>>379806281

Not that bro, but I also live in Lexington. I will look into this, as I've been trying to find a good CRT and have come up with nothing around here.

I tried calling the TV stations to see if they had any of those old production monitors, but they either didn't have them anymore or they were still in use.

>>379807096
It does, like any other pvm. Syncing is more troublesome than it's worth if you don't have the proper equipment. Or a couple of wires and resistors.

>>379813050
Just buy an old Nvidia card and a junker PC and install soft15khz. A lot easier.

AdvanceMAME is also very easy to work with, if you don't mind a bit outdated emulation.

>>379813738
>Syncing is more troublesome than it's worth if you don't have the proper equipment

The only systems I ever bothered running RGB with was the PS2/3. Everything else was just emulators.

If you want the very, very best image you can get out of a retro system you'll need to use an emulator anyway. A PC graphics card has a much cleaner and more accurate RGB input than you'll ever get from the real systems. Look up all the problems they have with Super Famicom RGB output.

Yes. Look up jailbars and shadow boxes that appear when using RGB with a real SNES/SFC. This is not an issue when using an emulator.

Those days are about over. If you want to get a monitor like that for free you may spend years waiting.

No jailbars, sharpest image quality you can get out of an SNES

>>379814536
You get the boxes with that model, I think. There wasn't a version made that had a perfect image.

>>379814536
Also, as clean of a signal as you can get from an SNES it will still be even better from a computer's GPU. It's just a matter of the build quality of the components.

>>379819301

It's a long shot, but the magnetic poles of the earth might also be affecting it if it's one of those super sensitive monitors that editing studios used. It would be a pain, but try changing what direction it's facing & see if it goes away. EX: If it's facing north, point it south, etc.

Because you're wearing out the capacitors and cathode rays and they'll have to be replaced but the parts aren't made anymore

SNES doesn't have jailbars, that's the Genesis.

They do have the "grey line" issue which varies from system to system and from revision to revision.

1CHIPs do have their own faults though, but the sharpness and clarity are worth the trade off.

>>379820226
Go beg off RGB Rob, or just see if you can find a decent set with a SCART input.

ABC was apparently a really good source of PVMs a year or so ago when they did a massive sell off, but you've almost definitely missed the train on that one.
