What does this mean for CRT TV owners? Opportunity ... great pricing value and deals ... but some predictable headaches since you'll need a "signal decoder" unit installed on your CRT TV in order to see the image. The good news is that the market is primed and ready with a number of relatively inexpensive CRT HD TV accessories.
CRT Projection TV. CRT projection TV normally means " rear projection TV". Here's what's going on. Incoming analog cable signal is "split" into the 3 primary spectrum color frequencies ... red, blue, green. Your CRT rear projection TV has 3 distinct cathode ray tubes which channel each frequency (representing a portion of the eventual image that you see on the screen) onto the front screen, where the signals are mixed.
LCD Vs. CRT TV. CRT TV definitely is the "value" low cost player in home entertainment systems. Visual quality ... brightness? Not so good as LCD.

Answer: you might pay 4 to 5 times as much for a comparable sized 20 inch LCD TV.
Another major factor in the LCD vs CRT TV debate is ease-of-use. With your CRT TV, you'll be fine-tuning color mix and brightness with virtually every program. LCD HDTV is lock-and-load ready to deliver top viewing, without fuss or bother.

CRT TV Wall Mount Tips. Unless you intend to re-model, you should avoid the temptation of doing a CRT TV wall mount. Reason? CRT TV's are heavy, somewhat oddly balanced appliances ... and you could easily find your TV knocked over and lying in pieces on the floor. However, if the wall mount "look" is what you intend, then consider professional installation ... or be 100% certain that your CRT TV wall mount bracket is firmly anchored in structural timber, and not merely plaster board.
