I like tube TVs better than LCDs and plasmas. Don't hate on me for that please! For those who know a lot about tube tvs, what do you think is the best quality tube tv? I'm interestd in both the best quality widescreen model and the best quality 4:3 model. The TV does not currently have to be being sold, because a lot of tube TVs seemed to have been phased out. But I am willing to hunt for one.
Thanks a lot for your help!

Toshiba makes an excellent 26"-30", in with and without DVD/VCR combos, only downside is it only goes up to 1080i. but the picture is outstanding especially for video games.

I agree . Most people don't know but the Tube TV still has the best picture out. I have A 42" Plasma , A 32" LCD and a 30" tube, the tube is best for viewing at different angles and the picture is beautiful.

For a widescreen (16:9) tube go with the Sony 34" XBR (if you can find one). It's a great tv but it's been clearanced by a lot of places. If you are looking at a 4:3 tv then look at Samsung's SlimFit HD tube series.

No CRT can match the resolution of a 720p or 1080p LCD or Plasma (they accept 1080i, but on-screen resolution doesn't come close to that) However, no Plasma or LCD can match the rich blacks and daytime visibility of a direct-view TV. I believe some direct-view CRT sets are still made, and they cost much less than the other types. The sets weigh a ton, though. If you can find a 32" or 32" Sony, that's what I would recommend. If you want HDTV, you have to get a widescreen model.
