Default What type of display do you use?


What type of display do you use and how is it output from the Amiga?

I currently use the color composite out from a genlock card in my video slot to a 8.1 inch LCD TV. I am in the process of trying to find a 9 pin monitor to plug into the output from FF.

The main Amiga I use a Picasso IV scandoubler, IIyama VisionMaster Pro 450 19" CRT monitor. (Supports 50Hz, 60Hz and 100Hz).

The A600 I use an RGB SCART cable to a 36" 4:3 Bush SD CRT TV.

(Damn, so many abbreviations)

I have a PicassoIV in my A4000, so I use a huge Eizo crt, which I also use for my pc. The A4000 is connected to bnc connectors in the back of the monitor.

My A500 is usually connected to a 1084S, or sometimes to a tv through scart.

My CD32s are usually connected to a tv through the standard composite cables.

My A1200 is connected to a 1084S through RGB.

Default Re: What type of display do you use?

My A1200 (with flickerfixer) and A2000 (with flickerfixer and CV643D) both have a 15" Compaq V500 CRT. My A3000 (with CV64) uses a 17" Eizo F764 CRT.

I don't use any of my Amigas as a maincomputer, so there are no plans to upgrade them with new monitors.

A good old Commodore 1084S via RGB. Way better than the composite RF signal I had hooked up to my TV in the early 90s. ;-)

Default Re: What type of display do you use?

This is an old photo, but the display is pretty much the same: A4000 + CV-3D + scandoubler , SONY 17" Multiscan G200 Trinitron. Unmatched picture quality!

A500/CDTV/CD32 : 1084S through switcher.

A600/A1200 : boxed :-(
