- A great-looking 12" Trinitron from Sony in 1971. It's been well taken care of and still performs well.
You can see a close-up of this set in the movie "The Post" with Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks (2017.) The scene takes place in 1971 and starts at about the fifty-three minute and forty-five seconds mark. The newsroom crew is standing around the set watching Walter Cronkite report. They even paid attention to detail: the VHF indicator is lit although the picture would certainly have been simulated.
Sony Trinitron Televisions have always produced one of the most beautiful pictures, that you can find and they are very reliable televisions.👍
I think my dad still has the one he bought with my mom in 1971 sitting unused in his basement.
Beautiful :)
I'm getting a woodgrain Sony KV-1300E soon, can't wait!
Wow...I had no idea Sony was making Trinitron models as far back as 71. That is a nice looking set. Nice lines.
Trinitron was announced in 1968 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinitron). ~Jack, VEG
The Trinitron picture was state of the art from early 70's to mid 80's.
Dude, I had this exact model like 15 years ago, had to replace all caps for it to turn back on as it was dead.
Then I was really close to fix it completely but I found out that one color was missing and thought that the cathodes were shot, but it turns out it was just one dead transistor, the sad thing is that I couldn't find a replacement, then I gave up and I don't remember what I did with the TV, I wish I still had it.
The red button on the rear is a circuit breaker. Push to reset. I worked on many of these as a tech at a Sony service station.
Do you by chance, know hot to adjust the horizonal and vertical width on the back? Do you just stick a screw driver in?
@@FreezenFactor I didn't remember that control being on the back but, probably. Try it. Can't hurt. You can always turn it back where it was.
What an awesome find! Great video!
I have this exact tv in my garage but it doesn't work it don't turn on . anyone know how I can fix it? I don't know anything about crt tv's
I would love this set my oldest trinitron is from 1984.
I have almost the same in France, a ‘72. I have the saloon model and the portable model.
g2 voltage is too high. you need to lower the SCREEN knob until the black levels come back
Someone left this same set out for trash pick up ,saved it!

I don't know, but I know this: Don't use a regular screwdriver. You would need to use plastic/non-conductive trimmer tool.
I had the same one.
I found that tv. Just the nob for the numbers in missing
How many Trinitrons do you own?
Can you connect anything to crt tv
What I don't understand about Sony is that they come out with a superior CRT but when flat panels come out I thought Sony would try to make a panel that would be higher quality than it's competitors. What happened.?
Sony did come out with a superior LCD flatscreen, its called the "Bravia" series (i have one - a 46 incher - the 1080p LCD picture is very nice) , just before that it was the Sony Wega 1080i "Superfine Pitch" screen XBR CRT, they are nice, i have two 32" inchers , that I found for free!! (one from a dumpster area and one on craigslist, gwad! they look so nice!)
Because Samsung make the panels - it's all about cheap cheap cheap save money these days.
SONY MADE IN JAPAN
when was the last time you saw that
Sony makes some great lcd panels but it already got to such a high quality that it's hard to differentiate them from the rest
Very nice! I believe the red button is a power reset. ~Jack, VEG
Idiot
The design is cool. The cabinet is made of plastic and is durable without deterioration!🥰
What digital converter is that?
I don't remember. I used to have several different ones I used. They kept going bad.
cool
I have the exact same TV and works great
Liar.
You look like your 38 lol
@@abc-ni9uw what does age have to do with owning the tv?
Waw, i ,,Remember that ,Tv,-- of ,my Grand- Father,,he,, Always watch bikini- Open,he he he jok jok
That tv looks old
yeah, dude, its a vintage Sony Trinitron TV, and thats what makes it cool. You see back then Sony Trinitron series TVs were top of the line, and the picture still is great, LCD isnt the be all end all TV as many think.
It's from 71 it's not gonna have a hdmi socket is it you idiot
