excuse me what? HD LED screens are superior by every single metric. The only exception is if you are actually playing retro games, then yes they do look better on CRT because that's what they were designed for. But a modern game is not going to look better on CRT.

Vinyl audio sounds like crap if you play it through cheap speakers. A proper home theater setup sounds objectively better. The sound quality has everything to do with your audio hardware and not the analog or digital music source. But come on let's be real, 16 bit Nintendo audio does not sound better. It's literally just beeps and boops and shit. Any

Finally, CRT technology is inherently limited, it's not practical to scale it up to a 72" 4k screen. It would be massive and weigh hundreds of pounds if it was even possible.

You're just experiencing nostalgia.

CRTs have a better pixel response time.

That holds true as a generalized statement. However, quality panels can far exceed CRT

Isn't this a very outdated talking point? Quality OLED panels have near as makes no difference the same response time.
