Pros: It's top of the line
Cons: A little big in depth, but it's worth it
Summary: Now here is a monitor where you get your money's worth. This ad shows that it retails for $329, however I picked mine up for $200 after rebates. This monitor ranks up there with the best of the 17" Monitor's I have seen on the market these days. ... read more

Pros: Super clear, Super flat, Super bright
Cons: A little difficult to get square picture
Summary: This monitor simply amazes me. I have always seen Trinitron monitors at my friends' houses, and have always wanted one. However, every time I saw them in stores, they were so expensive!
What exactly is Trinitron? Trinitron is a technology from ... read more

Pros: Crystal clear, color
Cons: it's not a 19 inch
Summary: With a refresh rate of 85 hz at 1024x768 and a maximum resolution of 1280x1024, this monitor has the specs to get your attention, but where it really shines is image quality. It is absolutely crystal clear even at its maximum resolution. Where other ... read more

Pros: Clear display
Cons: Burned out on me
Summary: Let me begin by saying that I have three KDS monitors. ALL of my monitors are the KDS brand. I bought the AV7T (the radius m-1) in September of 1999. I didn't have a problem with it the first couple of months. The picture was clear, very crisp, with a ... read more

By nature I am a Sony nut and this monitor does ... read more

Pros: sharp graphics, text, and color saturation
Cons: had to swap out the first monitor because it made a high pitched noise
Summary: This monitor is excellent! I paid only $239.00 for it at Best Buy. The first one I got had a minor problem though. After a couple of days I noticed a slight high pitch whine from the back of the monitor which was amplified louder if I kept the ... read more

Pros: price, quality
Cons: price, quality
Summary: About a year ago, I bought a av-7t. I must say I was impressed with the apparent quality of it. This was the case for six months. Then, nothing. Yup, I mean nothing. Go ahead and push that power button-go on. No bueno? No, just totally dead. I ... read more

Pros: Fantastic customer service.
Cons: None that I can think of
Summary: The quality of a product is certainly important, and the KDS AV7T is as good as any monitor you will find for the price. But creature features ain't everything. With that in mind, I will relate to you my recent experience.
First, let me ... read more

Pros: Good Quality, Excellent Price
Cons: Visible Grille Stabilizing Wire
Summary: The Sony Trinitron tube displays excellent graphics - the text is of lesser quality, but still good. The price can't be beat for a 17" color monitor (I paid $195 for mine) and the KARES (KDS Advanced Replacement Express Service) provides peace of ... read more

Pros: good color, inexpensive alternative to a sony
Cons: no driver disc included with my monitor, that little line all trinitron monitors have (if you don't know what I'm talking about, ignore this, trust me)
Summary: When I decided to get a new PC, one of the most important items to me was the monitor. (I equate it to speakers on a stereo system). I wanted a trinitron tube ( I knew I wasn't going to be able to afford a diamondtron tube) and so, the search began. ... read more

I bought this monitor about 2 months ago for a total of $290 including S&H ($260 before). I chose it mainly ... read more

Pros: Great Display for the Price
