I couldn't help it

That is a Hi-Scan model, not a super-fine-pitch so it is not as good as the super-fine-pitch models.

This page tells the resolution specs of the CRTs Sony made and the models they offered. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FD_Trinitron/WEGA

I went with a KD-34XS955. It has ATSC/NTSC tuning, HDMI input, every analog input I could ask for and supports 1080i and has a 16:9 CRT (not many of those made which makes it a future collectable in my book)....Only drawback is that it is a bit heavier than I am (good thing I can lift more than my weight ).
