Are those monitors all the same computer? How are you connecting them if so?
3 monitors seems pretty excessive for one machine IMO, I'd prefer using 2 computers that way...

The monitor is only 19 inch viewable, I don't even use the speakers built into it, but the monitor also doubles up as a TV, so that is why they are there.

That is what I was saying, the W1900 is a TV and a monitor, it also has scart and analogue ports, although I don't watch TV through it.

Aah, just struck me as weird because I'm used to 16:10 monitors...

CRT monitors get hot and need to be well ventilated, that would be a massive fire hazard.

I thought the ventilation came out the back? as long as you have good circulation i don't think it would be to bad (/me knows he is probably Wrong :P).

CRT's vent the heat out the top. There's a massive sticker on the back of most CRT's.

And considering the black studio monitors cost at least $5,000 each, I'd rather not break them.
