I don’t mean BETTER. That’s a different conversation. I mean cooler.
An old CRT display was literally a small scale particle accelerator, firing angry electron beams at light speed towards the viewers, bent by an electromagnet that alternates at an ultra high frequency, stopped by a rounded rectangle of glowing phosphors.
If a CRT goes bad it can actually make people sick.
That’s just. Conceptually a lot COOLER than a modern LED panel, which really is just a bajillion very tiny lightbulbs.

Find a video of the Marantz 2150 with the oscilloscope built in,or the Telefunken reel to deal with the glowing level meter. Really wished I’d kept both of those
That’s dope. Would love to get one of those some day.
