the worlds largest CRT Television,, not philco - KX45ED1

youtube link
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfZxOuc9Qwk

sorry this is  not philco so if its in the wrong location,, either way i believe for the sake of its historical significance, it be allowed to exist somewhere here.

enjoy this very amazing story of the worlds largest tv set that sold new for over 40,000$ us  !!! yup.
also enjoy the purpose behind why!!!
apparently there is a very unique cult following in the modern day gaming community to run games on tube TV to take adantage of what gamers call "lag" in that their reaction time to executing a button push is quicker than the competiition using pure digital tech.   These kind of forks in the road of technology captures my attention and so i had to watch the full vid.  the general opion was that this model KX45ED1 ****DOES NOT EXIST**** and then one shows up.  

For the sake of all that is good in the world of "good paybacks" and  "told ya so's"  please do not miss the very end of this wonderful vid.
Me personally,, it kinda tugged at my feels so to speak because it speaks to an era of true enovation and extreme engineering finally discovering the very end of CRT for nothing else other than the science and materials required finally met an impass.  we cant go bigger,, and if we did you would need a cherry picker at the least to move it.

enjoy,, feedback please  !!!

I have already reported this breaking news to SHANGO66 on youtube,, a brilliant radio & TV fixer guy,, cutting edge thinkers and Do'ers like most of you guys here i have gotten wonderful guidance and education in the past.

enjoy,, pop corn time for sure,, this one is a right click save as for sure.

I saw that on YouTube just this week! What an incredibly massive CRT, and what luck that it was discovered and saved.

i still have my Sony Trinitron TV. Didn't have the heart to toss it. My first new color TV. Bought it at Wiz. $200. In 1994, I think...Works perfectly.
It's just, it is analog....

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Michael, these Trinitrons are extremely durable picture tubes. They are record-breakers, I worked in a television repair shop for 25 years and was always impressed with the color quality of Sony Trinitron TVs, even when they were 20 years old.
