Cool 2006 Toshiba 14AF46 FST Pure CRT TV (pics)

Here's a rarity, probably one of the last tube TV's made during this time period. I got this for free from local classifieds.
It has a nice picture even for an SPC TV set (silver plastic crap)

14" flat screen
Made in Thailand
Comes with remote
Rear component input and front RCA composite jacks

Fairly rare to see component inputs on a small CRT set (or any CRT set for that matter), I have a small Sony that has them.

I passed on a Samsung 16:9 HD CRT set yesterday for $20, to heavy to deal with and cosmetically it was a mess, though it was working.

Yes and also see where it says "DIGITAL COMB FILTER"

Thats not a true CRT (Not surprising for 2006)

I do not like flat screens!!!!!!! -- One time someone Tried to sell me a flat screen CRT monitor and I did not want it!!!!!!! (I want the traditional screen which is the nicest )

The one I bought, would even meet your approval!
I have a few of similar sets. One JVC 14" and two 20" Toshiba's. The 20's don't seem to have as good of a picture as my favorite 14" model.

I can understand your view point, but a CRT is a Cathode Ray Tube...don't forget. a flat screen tube or a round or square tube, all are a CRT !! love it or not, it's a CRT man.... :P

vertical IC failures were common. I remember seeing screen burns from the set running with vertical being a bit too small. Once the caps and IC were replaced, the screen burns became apparent.
They had heat problems around the vertical IC and it cooked the capacitors.

Probably that you say true but, We have an old model for almost 19 years already and it never stopped working .. I never opened it and I do not know if the tube is brand 'Orion' or 'Toshiba'. As long as it does not stop, I will not open it either. It's a model of the 90s. My wife had it before I knew it.

Well, you do avoid luma-chroma separation errors.

Ideal if you have a Progressive Scan DVD player, most of the later ones were though, even the $29 cheapie Cyberhomes had Component out.

It's an Orion, they made the same set for JVC too. I had one, it was a good performer.

I bought one of the 14 inchers probably five years ago, at the GW, when they started to accept TV's again. Back then, it was $6.99 and it looked like, they just removed it from the carton. Both TV and remote were immaculate. Built in February, 2004. I've been using it for 6 to 8 hours a day, since I got it. In fact, it's on right now. I see no performance degradation yet.

I have the 24" of that model. I bought mine new, after wanting a Sony Wega. These were in direct competition to the Sony's, and offered the SAME screen sizes, hence the weird 24" model. I had a really small area to put it, so it worked out perfect for me.
FANTASTIC picture, but yes.. I was shocked to find out it wasn't a Toshiba, but an outsourced Orion. Even has an Orion label on the tube.

Yes, they're very nice performers, not to mention fairly nice looking for such a recent design. My mom owns the identical TV, which now sits in her closet as I eventually upgraded her to the 20" version of that set, the model 20AF46C. Pic taken just after I got it.
