I mainly only use a HDTV, I see almost no value in the CRT anymore because the TV I bought I researched so there wouldn't be an input lag issue. The remaining effect is that first gen of 3D systems (N64 etc) have problems displaying on an off the shelf LCD TV due to tricks the systems used CRTs do to handle some effects and display which the newer can't so things get broken or at worst invisible(just black on black.) With that I still have my sharp NES tv, so the N64 is plugged into it. CRTs are just huge, heavy, the visual quality isn't all that fantastic, even on a higher end non-HD CRT so I see no use for it other than for one console I own and really don't even use.
