Yes, memory can be a funny thing. The 4-tube hybrid is neck-and-neck to be my favorite to the CCII. Still have a 19CC19 with the tube horiz and damper. 6FL6? I believe. That one probably has a better picture than this one but the CCII has much better HV regulation and may be brighter overall.
Meanwhile, my early system-3 stuff (9-160 based sets and the 'Z' line from '83-'84) still makes a fantastic color picture but when you take them apart, they are
so much cheaper of a build. Really plasticy and thin boards.
