I think before you decide, you should go somewhere that has both and use them and see what you like.
I personally can't stand looking at every LCD I can remember. I haven't used any really high end ones, but I'm used to looking at CRTs and don't like the image LCDs create as far as motion (they're getting better) and I like the colors of CRTs better.
There are plenty of threads on LCDs vs CRTs too. You should read some opinions and decide what's important to you.
Dell LCDs are pretty popular around here, and are often there's some deals around where you can get a really nice price on them.
I have an NEC CRT and like it a lot. I've had it for 4 years though so I'm not really up to date on what's a good buy now.
I don't know what azatech is... sorry
