Can anyone recommend me a nice Flat(flat screen and flat model, no bulky set) CRT non-HDTV set? All I do is play games, not watch any TV. It HAS to have at least 2 component inputs and be 19" or higher. Also would like built in speakers. Im looking to spend around $500 or less. A reputable brand as well. Thanks.

I'm not aware of any SDTVs being sold right now that have 2 component inputs, and most CRTs are "bulky."

There's no such thing. If you want a flat panel you can't have a CRT.

They do make flat-panel CRTs.

I wanted something like that. That is a Flat-panel CRT with 2 Components.

Im not sure about Samsung though, because I heard their TVs had problems(with bowing and other things).

I would get an LCD, but I heard SD stuff doesn't look good on them. And I don't really want Widescreen because non-WS stuff usually looks bad on them?

That set is not a flat panel. It's a slimfit CRT, it's 16.5 inches deep and weighs over 90 lbs. If the slimfit is what you want I believe that Samsung is the only one that manufactures them. I don't know what you've heard negative about the brand but Samsung has an excellent reputation for quality and reliability.

Although this 32 inch Sharp Flat Tube TV do not have two Component inputs, but it will fill the rest your prescription. With one year warranty.

But hurry as this model will be discountinued soon.
