we live as we dream. Alone.
For the first time ever, I've used a 1084s commodore monitor and I have to say that I'm impressed!
The 14 inch CRT monitor has speakers / scart / ear jack and a host of buttons to play with and delivers a crisp , sharp and colorful image.
I suspect the reason I never had one in the olden days was that I simply could not afford one and was probably unaware of how good the image is compared to tv's.
Now in 2012 , we have LCD monitor / tv's and in Europe with have the all in one video solution that is scart. So all in all the market for these monitors may well diminish over time but and I say but, no Amiga is complete without a commodore monitor sat on top.
Crisp picture, vibrant colours and stereo speakers, what more does a growing boy need.

1084 spec.
Picture Tube: 14 inch (13 inch viewable), slotted triplet pitch 0.42 mm

Monitor input sockets for RGB signals:
9-pin D: RGB Analog 0.7 P-P, 75 Ohm
DIN connector: RGBI Digital TTL Levels
Resolution: 640 x 200 lines, 640 x 400 lines interlaced
Characters: RGB, RGBI, 2000 characters, Composite, Seperated LCA, 1000 characters
Raster Frequency: 50 or 60Hz
Line Frequency: 15625 - 15750Hz
Sound Output: 1WRMS
Audio Signal: 1.0V P-P, 47K Ohm
Mains Voltage: 240 VAC, 60Hz
Power Consumption: 75W
Dimensions (H x W x D): 330 x 357 x 378 mm
Weight: 11 kg
1084 Sub-Models
The 1084 and its variants (1084S, 1084ST, 1084S-P, 1084-P, 1084S-P2, 1084-D, 1084S-D) are all 15.75 kHz monitors. They do not handle AGA "double" screenmodes, nor will they display the deinterlaced output from the A2320 Amber board or the motherboard deinterlaced output on an A3000. However, they will show all normal 15.75 kHz displays, and many (most? all?) of the 1084 versions have a separate input for composite video.
The 1084 is a usually a variation of the Philips CM8833 monitor; the 1084S-D was made by Daewoo (as was the 1084D, probably). The display tubes used in these monitors were made by Orion, Toshiba, Hitachi, and Samsung.
At one time or another, every possible permutation of connectors and video capabilities on the 1084 seems to have been reached, so don't be surprised if your 1084 has some bizarre combination of connectors and specifications.
