Hi...

My TV is the very last CRT HD Sony TV.  Deep, deep blacks, and pure whites.  Yes, it is only HDMI 1.1, but I love the 1920 X 1080p picture. No motion artifacts.

I am getting shy about putting more then 60V on pin 8 of my analog board in my Color Classic. I just do not think that sony trinitron CRT was made to very much more then 5% (but I am not an expert).

So, I had two thoughts and maybe the learned folk here can advise me....

1) Did Sony make a 10" CRT that one could put in a Color Classic so that if it saw 60V sitting on pin 8, it would produce at least 640 X 480?

OK, so a hard question to answer I know.  So let's move to option # 2:

2) This will be way more costly, but easier on my CRT eyes. Is anyone making a 10" OLED that we could drop into a color classic?  While the OLED would probably produce 1920 X 1080 or maybe 1280×720 (720p), I would be happy if I could drive it to just produce 640 X 480.

I am not a big fan of LED and LCDs.  I want to see that lovely sony trinitron CRT if I can.

Thoughts?
