Recommended LCD monitors/TVs for Amiga?

pedrorq · 05 May 2014, 05:44

Hi,

I bet this question shows up a lot

I was wondering if there's a list of recommended non-CRT monitors or TVs to use with the Amiga?

I know someone who's had success with the LG 22MN43D (using the 23ppin - scart cable) so I am considering its "bigger brother" the LG 24MN43D: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00BP4R5DA/

I am however open to suggestions

TIA!

Any LCD TV should work as long as its scart.
Im using a 22" samsung widescreen at the moment in 4:3 mode, and before that It was a 17" samsung lcd.

That LG looks fine though. Only thing I have noticed is Screooling text on Cracktros isnt the smoothest on an LCD.

I'm using a Samsung T24B300 for my C64, Amiga 500 and Atari ST via a Hama SCART switch. The setup works great and I can route the sound through external speakers. Just remember to use 4:3 aspect ration.

For my Amiga 1200 I have an Indivision scan doubler hooked up to a 19" Benq BL902 5:4 monitor. The picture quality is superb.

I can only say that my LG 42LW579s doesn't like anything out of the "ordinary". Neither of my Amigas (500, 600, 1200) work with it, not even minimig.

On the other hand, my monitor Dell U2311h works fine with Amiga, it supports 15 kHz so direct cable conection works without problems.
