Getting back in to Amiga.

[RetroAsylum]

Hi, so as a child I grew up with an Amiga 1000 in the states, I absolutely LOVED that computer. Although it was/is a great system there are very few available upgrades that are available for it, I know there are some out there but nothing that I've found that was specifically designed for the A1K. I have an accelerator designed for the A500 but does unofficially work on the A1K...I digress, anyway I decided to get a A3000 which seems to have a lot more options available for upgrading and pushing it to the limits of what an Amiga computer can do. The point of this thread is to ask what commodore monitor "came with" the computer? I've found a display called Ranger 15 and Ranger 21 but the information I've found said that it was only sold in the UK. Then I see the 1930 but I think that only supports 15Khz. Since there a lot of highly informed people here can someone tell me what the best CRT monitor would be to utilize the maximum output with the best resolution possible?

Thanks in advance. PS. I'm aware of the Philips mk2 but that seems near impossible to find and I was hoping to keep it authentic to Amiga brand.

Common monitors then:
Philips CM8833
Commodore 1081 and 1084

Now, not so easy...
OSSC: Use almost any screen with your Amiga, also need an Amiga-SCART cable for best results. You will also need to learn a bit about timings and navigate a fairly unfriendly menu system to tune it for best results.
GBS8200: cheap scan converter from eBay. Quality not great in basic form. With some hardware tweaks and adding a WiFI module it becomes much nicer. This video a great introduction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmfR0XI5czI
Modern LCD: some LCDs made in the last 20 years can display Amiga signals! See http://15khz.wikidot.com but beware, even monitors with the same model number can change over the years and might not work.
Emulation: Games via emulation are pretty good, a Pi400 with one of the Amiga emulation distros is a lot of fun. Might want a joystick USB adapter for most realistic results.
