If its a CTC140 I would grab it as long as it has a strong jug.
We didnt see many of them.
As far as CTC140 vs Sony I prefer the RCA. Sony pictures are
to me harsh, the RCA has a smoother & more natural pix. Sharpness
the same. All assuming perfect sets.
It probably has built in SPKR's but odds are so so ones. I have a
$4K ham radio that has a crap speaker no better than in a $5
AM only radio. Spend that kinda $$ you can get the $200 matching
SPKR !

It Works!!!

Well I'm super happy I made the drive back there! Got there and pulled out the TV only to find out it did not have a power cord luckily its the same kind as a desktop PC uses and I found one on the shelf! The staff was more than happy to help they even got me a extension cord so I could plug it in and not have to carry it halfway across the store to a outlet it came right up really bright snow and on screen display! So I paid the $7.99 for the tv and they helped me load it in my SUV come to find out it must be a very low hours set just looking through the air vents in the back there is hardly any dust and the CRT I would say is like new and only at half brightness and contrast it's VERY bright and clear. Also has great sound from what I can see from the side it has a 3 or 4in midrange with a separate tweeter. Over all very happy with it it works flawlessly only downside is apparently a universal remote is not compatible with it ( at least my directv remote) so I'll have to look into getting a original one. The pics are off ch. 11 it's picking up my VHF modulator with a antenna.
