[filmapprentice] "at this point in time, stick with the tube CRTs?"
Well, I can only speak for me... but yes in our shop all of the actual
production monitors are CRTs. I hate the fact that they are big and klunky and take up so much real estate... but they look good.
You might track down one of the more techie-heads in some of the other forums (Bob Zelin comes to mind, a cranky old guy, but there's nothing technical that he doesn't know) and get a more technical recommendation rather than my fairly aesthetic one. You can find those guys haunting the High-End HD, HDV, and RED Camera forums and the like.
