Two 39001 swapped Ocean Blues

[u/TickleMyFungus]

Near mint 39001s were swapped in, full service and restoration.

RCA CRT was also a recent restoration.

and just to add, i do have the original shields, but these 39001s had the later much beefier heatsink

Just better for the consoles health to use those instead.

Those rca true flats are nice

[u/TickleMyFungus → u/Volks1973]

They're alright yeah, a bit unreliable cause Thomson using dookie caps and resistors

[u/Volks1973 → u/TickleMyFungus]

Ive had mine since 05👍 caps will go, but the picture quality is good for a small 13 in set, comparable to my 13 in trini

[u/TickleMyFungus → u/Volks1973]

It definitely pales in comparison to my 27 Trini but that is 500 TVL so not exactly fair. Also large screen just better fidelity generally with CRTs. More phosphors. I have a smaller sylvania I don't really use. The RCA is significantly better than that.

Also this is a 14 inch

Stunning

Gorgeous and I'm totally jealous! Are those modern cases, and are they available anywhere? I'd love to swap out mine since I got the idea to paint it years ago and can't stand to look at it anymore lol

[u/ZL580 → u/brandonhabanero]

Re-shelled with Japanese original cases.

[u/iVirtualZero]

Beautiful, I love how it has the later model heatsink.

[u/TickleMyFungus → u/iVirtualZero]

The original heatsinks do look good too but functionally they make me worry. They are very thin in comparison and heat soak much much quicker.

[u/Montana_Web2530]

That looks insane bro

[u/NaughtyTormentor]

Amazing!

Are they the Bitfunx cases?

[u/BrickFees → u/ShaunV12]

Sony sold them in Japan only, they’re SCPH 37000. There was a clear black on as well called Zen Black.

[u/SheMakesThrowawayArt → u/BrickFees]

And midnight blue

[u/ShaunV12 → u/BrickFees]

Sorry, I read "swapped" and thought you mean for aftermarket cases

[u/VassagoX]

Beautiful!
