Hi all,
Looking into getting a 19" monitor. The interesting thing about purchasing a monitor is that specs mean practically nothing. Instead, I would rather rely on the experiences of people who have owned these monitors. Important to me is clarity, color depth, and eye strain after prolonged use (hopefully lack of). Having an image that fills the screen to the corners and doesn't take a lot of fiddling to get square is handy.
The obvious choice seems to be the Sony E400. However, for less money I can get a KDS, or CTX Trinitron screen or another "budget monitor". How do non-Sony Trinitron screens compare to Sony screens? What about the Lucky Goldstar 995E screen I've heard so much about? What about the MAG 800v or MAG's Trinitron monitors. Price does matter. I'm looking for a monitor under $500 and would love to get one closer to $300. However, I don't want to "settle".
Thanks in advance for recommendations/advice,
Mark.
