I recently bought a Pioneer PDP-427XD plasma, and although it delivered very impressive pictures during bright, colourful scenes, the black levels really let it down during dark scenes. I've arranged to send it back for a refund, and have decided to stick with CRT technology until (1) the HD format war is over, (2) SED screens are affordable, or (3) I have enough space to run a decent projector set-up.

I have had my current CRT TV - Philips 28PW6006 - for about five years now, and although it's still going strong, I'm starting to wonder whether I should replace it before CRTs become even harder to find! I've been very impressed with the Philips, and would only buy something new if it could deliver equal (or better) picture quality. Ideally I would want something with the following features:

• S-Video Input
• 2x RGB SCART Inputs
• Decent geometry (this was a slight problem with the 6006)
• Component input (know this is probably out of the question, though)

Can anyone recommend a TV matching these criteria, or should I just stick with my current TV and buy a Master SCART Controller?

Thanks!
