Testing trash picked CRTs

[@drknstodstny4141]

Epic is the word that sums up this collection. I haven't been lucky enough to come across any PVMs but I have managed to save roughly 40+ low to high end consumer sets and monitors. I used to hate trash day. Now I put a few bucks in the car and go looking around to see what treasures I can find and give a second life. Maybe even a 3rd one. Appreciate the content. Been learning a few things along the way. Thanks duders.

Gotta catch them all!

[@TheOriginalCollectorA1303]

Just another day at the office! I too try to keep my CRTs well organized, the part where they physically take up space doesn’t count though. Those shelves are essential for a collection! Great video!

[@somenutterinashed9582]

Wow! That is one hell of a CRT hoard! Makes my pile of old TV's and radio's look kinda tame...😁

[@jeffhampton6972]

This was great, and I loved the outro. :D

[@joysticksnjukeboxes]

I made a rookie mistake and was drinking water when you first showed all your CRT's in the shop.

[@ronniesosin3265]

Love it! Love your crazy funny look at the end of the video lol😂

[@Wobble2007]

Just got a D20 casually sitting on a shelf lol, and a Japanese Olympus 20" I spotted, very nice. (not to mention a Sony C520K, imo the best flat-screen CRT Sony made, many will say the F520, but the C520K has fancy master grade phosphors for higher colour luminance, blacks and overall IQ)

[@bestill3x]

Loving the content. I hope the youtube channel and patreon keep growing for you brother. Maybe one day i'll get around to getting my little Sony kv-13fs100 serviced by you.

[@audibell]

I got a big box of laptop chargers and usb cable I have collected over the years

[@1977Bonishow-man]

Crts are amazing ❤❤❤❤

[@Charlie-Cat.]

What beauties they Are Steve. Some of which I use to have myself at one point. Nice indeed, 8^) Anthony..

[@just_passing_through]

So this is why the rest of us can’t find a single decent CRT…

[@RetroTechUSA]

@@just_passing_through yup. I'm taking them all

[@davidbenning10]

This is definitely part of the reason 😂! Unfortunately, as we already know, so many CRTs have also been trashed by people that wanted the “latest and greatest” flatscreens. 😢

[@ericritchie6783]

It's his job to refurbish them...

[@Wobble2007]

Truth be told, so many CRTs would be perma lost if it wasn't for guys like Steve preserving them, I do my best to save and refurb them too.

ohhh man It's like a museum in there :O

[@retroanderson]

I be keen to see a video on how to convert a CRT that has a RGB-TTL input over to Analog RGB input. I have a JVC TM-90PSN that looks great other than this silly input.

[@Off_Grid_Gaming]

Amazing 🔥

[@primecalibur]

I picked up a similar Sony hd crt w/ all the inputs - can't play light gun games but looks really nice with higher resolution games. A PC crt would be better probably, but definitely can't beat the big screen. I hear a retrotink 5x can scale lightgun games to 540p to sort of trick some of these into skipping the digital processing and remove the lag time to get light gun games working though.

[@mat7540]

Good man, always flip the shelf over prior to disassembley

[@jamesross3939]

Imagine all the CRTs that ended up in a dump! We paid $30 for the city to pick up our 36" CRT TV. I watched as they loaded it in the garbage truck along with all the other garbage.

[@aggressiveal6666]

Hey there I have issue with my PVM 9l2 the screen shaking specially the settings menu with your experience why that usually happened I mean what I should check to fix the problem with it ? I hope you answered me 🙏🏻

is this a video of my bedroom hahaha

[@RetroTechUSA]

Your bedroom must be awesome!

What is the model number of the black and white magnavox?

[@unchiga2812]

Dang almost as much as me

[@DarkneSSM305T]

Hello steve. What do you think about 20L4 in comparison to 20M4U ?

[@Wobble2007]

I have a 20M4, incredible PVM, though I think mine needs the G2 adjusting, the 240p is incredible on it, even better than my LaCie Blue IV 22 in 240p 120Hz mode.

[@ColaTai]

Oh hi steve

[@Sonyphile]

Show us those Trinitrons

[@ericritchie6783]

Looking well recently. More active?

[@culturax2285]

👀,,👍👍👍

[@Windows-Vienna-1]

Hey Steve how many CRT's do you have 🤔

[@davidbenning10]

Do you prefer PVM, TV CRT or PC CRT for DVD movies?

[@Wobble2007]

FYI mare, most PVMs are not great for DVD, as they are 480i or 576i, and that just doesn't look as good as either a PCM @ 576p with motion adaptive deinterlacing at 72Hz (or scaled up with your GPU), or the best way to watch DVD imo is on a nice CRT TV, as they are perfect for 480i or 576i, especially a nice big CRT set, a 36 inch 4:3 is equivalent to a 65" 16:9 set viewable screen estate wise, the best way to watch on a high TVL PVM is too downscale to 240p.

[@davidbenning10]

@@Wobble2007 I didn’t know I was a mare, I would’ve thought of myself as being more of a stallion 🐎 😎 In all seriousness, thanks for the info.

[@RandomBattlePresents...]

Who is the best television manufacturer for retro gaming, in your professional opinion? I've always favored Sony.

[@tenminutetokyo2643]

Wait an eMac

[@dsnein]

what’s the farthest you’ve gone for a PVM haul? i may know a place

[@RetroTechUSA]

Probably 6 hours round trip. How about you?
