In Reply to: Can't beat a Trinitron. posted by HiFiMaster on January 05, 2004 at 11:38:23:
Trinitron is no Sony invention and has nothing to do with ANY technology from Sony.
Trinitron tubes are in almost ANY TV you can buy today. Sony just stick with this term cause it sounds good.
Trinitron means same as Euro-Tube, or In-Line Tube, with In-Line being the most wide spred term.
It is a tube coming after Delta tube which has some issues that In-Line does not. It is all about how guns in tube are positioned. Triangle position called Delta, and 3 in line called In-Line or Trinitron.
Also Sony TVs are not even close to Panasonic. And even more far away from Grundig and Normende. This guys make TVs that you fall on your but when you see it. To bad they do not export, so you have to buy it in their countries. And they do not make NTSC, at least not to my knowledge.
Follow Ups:
The Trinitron was INVENTED by Sony and launched in Japan in 1968 in a 13" TV. Trinitron technology uses a single-gun, three-beam aperture grille, and a cylindrical flat screen. Sony later introduced this technology in TV's for the USA and other markets.The Trinitron was the world's first TV receiver ever to be awarded an Emmy. The Emmy Award is to the TV industry what the Academy Award is to the motion picture industry--the highest of all honors. The award is presented by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences to acknowledge television's best programs, actors, producers and TV stations AS WELL AS ground-breaking technology for broadcast hardware systems.
Sony later used the flat Trinitron technology in large computer graphics screens while others still used those old looking rounded CRT screens. I know. I worked in the professional computer graphics industry for 9 years at Silicon Graphics. Everyone wanted the large flat Sony monitors - nothing else would do.
The only reason you see this Trinitron technology used by others today is because Sony's PATENT RAN OUT.
It's just a name then? I thought it had something to do with the tube. I noticed that all Trinitrons have a relatively flat face vertcally, as opposed to the shperical shape on most tubes. Trinitron's been around for a while, I've seen Sony TV's from the late 70's/early 80's with the Trinitron name.
