You still didn’t mention the make, model & size of the set you returned.
I suspect you are trying to compare apples with oranges and coming up
with egg on your face :)
Any half-decent flat tube CRT should have an excellent picture but in comparison to the better flat panels of today they are just not in the race.
Also size!!!!!! Are you really trying to compare the viewing enjoyment from a 22 inch screen versus a 50 or 60 inch screen?
My computer monitor is a full HD LED lit LCD and 32 inches in size. It has an excellent picture. However I don’t watch movies on it because I much prefer the 65 inch plasma in my main HT set-up. (Size really dose matter)
I suggest if you want anything better than ordinary sound from a TV you will need to hook up external amps & speakers.
Other than the el-cheapo flat panels most of the current HD flat panel models have an excellent picture.
Give the 22 incher to some kid down the road and buy yourself a minimum of a 50 inch HD flat panel and enjoy it.
