What's the Best Retro TV for Colecovision?

[ValkerieSilk]

Was thinking maybe the one pictured in this ad looked pretty cutting edge for the time.

You don't need a model number. Just buy a Sony Trinitron. They come in various sizes.

I don't know why, but in the 90's my games always looked better in Sony Trinitron. (you know it's a Sony )

Was looking for something from 1982/1983...

I prefer a "newer" old TV with a flat picture tube and at least one composite video with audio inputs.

I love my Toshiba! my ex left it with me and im sure glad she did.

 

I've always been a big Sony fan and have a ton of Sony products.. I'm even typing on one

 

Sony is the best IMHO and I'd say that TV was definitely cutting edge at the time.

 

I miss my old 27" RCA ColorTrak 2000 Monitor/TV that my parents had when I was a kid. :thumbsup:

Its currently sitting over in my cousins basement at the moment. He's an old electrics guru and has fixed it a couple times for me over the years but I gave up on it after the last time it crapped out.

 

Such a shame since it had just about Every input and outputs you could imagine! Adjustable EQ, speaker outputs, multiple RCA inputs, etc... very cool.

I wonder if I should bother getting it fixed

I'd love to see what a ColecoVision with an F18A mod would look like on a great CRT computer monitor like the Sony G500.

I used a 12" Candle, Black & White TV at the start, but the Sony Trinitron came in much later around 86-87, so the Sony Trinitron is the one I would be looking for.

I'm personally a huge fan of the C64 monitor to play retro games.
