Well this is the CRT forum and not the HT forum, so I think this is the wrong place to to start this thread. A better question would be what is your favorite CRT shop or what is the best CRT shop. Now there are fine sources of CRT machines out there like Curt and Tim. These two guys know their stuff. But the question would be shop. My vote would go to Hi Rez. Those guys, Gary and Joel, know their stuff and have dedicated a substantial brick and mortar commercial enterprise to the art of CRTs. Their website is a handy reference and a handy comparative against which to make buying decisions. Like Tim and Curt, they give needed help without expecting anything in return. I, for one, am glad Tim, Curt, and the Hi Rez guys are there.
