Just grabbed a recent photo. I have way too many CRTs but theyre just so fun. Thats my Dreamcast over VGA on a little emachines CRT I got cheap.

I have a decent Philips CRT PC monitor as well. My TVs are

JVC 27" component (one of the later curve tubes you can get, kinda rare ish)

sansui 27" flat, actually a Toshiba. Very clear . needs a recap though.

21" rca truflatel component looks insanely crisp off a Sega genesis

21" junky no name w DVD player , just a spare I may give away

14" Samsung flat w component, my main ps2 TV right now.

43" Sony wega projection TV, actually looks amazing despite folks hating projection TVs.

Very nice! I remember being blown away the first time I connected my Dreamcast to a CRT monitor with the VGA cable.

I love the fact that you have a different display for each device. Do you have any modern consoles connected to them?

Ohh ya, I fricken was too. We didnt have this when I was a kid, it was rf or rca. We had no idea what we missed out on!

The genesis over component is just insanely crisp too. But yeah dreamcasy over VGA is pretty much peak.

The ps2 is the most modern one. Sometimes run my 360 over composite on them for fun but yeah mostly genesis Dreamcast n64 and ps1/2 are my main. I have a nes/SNES but I don't honestly play em much now.
