Playing some MGS 3 on the tiny Broadcast Trinitron with my PS2 Slim, that I recently mounted all on a swivelling Ergotron monitor arm. Works out great, and looks cool in a cyberpunkish way.

When somebody tells you they'll meet you in the Wal-Mart parking lot at 11 o'clock at night to give you a free Sony Trinitron, you go meet that person in the Wal-Mart parking lot at 11 o'clock at night for a free Sony Trinitron

It''s always wild to me when I see regular everyday CRT TVs being sold for real actual money on Marketplace, with "TRINITRON" in all caps in the title. People are actually spending $100+ on the kinds of TVs that were in a large chunk of living rooms as recently as when the PS3 dropped.
I have to assume these are younger people getting into vintage gaming, reading online about how Trinitrons are the be-all-end-all of CRT TVs, but somebody really needs to tell them that these aren't the Kirby's Adventure of CRT technology; they were the best from the late 60s to the very end, and many are still kicking in basements and play rooms, ready to be given away for free to the first person who offers to carry them up the stairs.
If you are determining the value of an item from eBay listings, you are going to have a bad time. I promise you they made more than 12 copies of MUSHA back in the day. I'd be willing to bet they even mass produced them for a time.
Et hop ! J’ai trouvé à pas cher ma nouvelle TV cathodique #Sony #trinitron en 60hz.

I find it amusing that, in an interplanetary spacecraft from 2032, one of the display screens—the one used to display the commander's video logs—is a #Trinitron #CRT.
#StarTrek is usually more diligent about concealing primitive display technology behind Okudagrams. Did they really think CRTs would still be in common use in 2032? Plasma displays and LCDs were already a thing in 1999 when the episode aired.
Anyone in New England have a Sony XBR they dont want?

KV-40XBR700
or a Pioneer PDP-V401 or pdp-V402 4:3 plasma?

That's wild. Would've been the coolest kid on the block with one of those in the parents' garage growing up with the N64.
YouTube creators have been on a bit of a roll the last 2 weeks … multi-year project of getting a partly-mythical 43-inch #Trinitron #CRT #TV (circa 1988, with optional RGB 480p60 inputs) found & working & rescued & delivered around the world for preservation
The Bugatti Veyron of SD CRTs? Insane engineering from Sony at its peak. The YouTuber is asking for help to get #Sony to give permission to one of the original engineers to talk all about it.
Last night my Tandy 1000's sweet Sony Trinitron monitor quit working. 😭😭
Because I'm me I had a NEC multisync sitting in my room doing nothing so I swapped it in and it's fine.
Not the same but fine.
I've had some success in fixing monitors before, so I'm definitely going to attempt to fix this Sony....

Asianometry takes a very in-depth look at the both the history and technology behind Sony's hugely impactful Trinitron aperture grille CRT display.
My preference for aperture grille over shadow mask technology cannot be overstated. Once I purchased my first aperture grille CRT in the early '90s (a 17-inch Nokia 447Xi with Trinitron tube), I never went back.
(And I still have one that I use daily, my Sony CPD-G420.)
Excellent deep dive:
