Hi Everyone,
I know that is very difficult to find a crt arcade, but just for curiosity, exist a Curved 25 CRT Arcade - Tri-res - multi-sync ?. Thank you
-
not new you won't. near impossible to find used.
most trimode and multisync moniitors where 27 inches.
most single mode or switchable mode 15/25 monitors where 25 inches.

Thank you lilshawn. I'm learning a lot thanks to you. I have another two questions ;D
1) All the classics (curved) TV CRT have the same dot pitch? (for example sony, philips,ecc have all the same dot pitch?
2) I read in another forum that the Monitor ARCADE CGA have a better picture than a Trimode Monitor Arcade always about 15khz. Can you confirm this. ? Thank you

Roccias, are you from America or Europe? Because you should be aware that when Americans mention monitor sizes like 19", 25" or 27" they don't mean the same thing as we do in Europe. 25" in Europe is 23" in the US and 25" US is 26" in Europe. In Europe you can find 25" (23" viewable) curved Hantarex Polo Star trisync (15-25-31khz) monitors. The tubes have the standard dot pitch (0.8mm) that is found in TV tubes (called "A" tubes). At some point Sony started to use "M" tubes in their TVs which have a finer pitch.
