It all depends on many factors after a throughly diagnostics is performed on the unit...
For instance, these are faults that will require CRT replacement...
A) CRTs with low emissions,
B) CRTs with bad gun(s),
C) CRT with H-K shorts.
These are the most critical functional issues that will require CRT replacement. Anything else such as FBT, HOT, PSU, or any faulty boards, can be easily fixed economically.
"Dying" CRT can be rejuvenated but provided that the CRT is healthy and free of the faults stated above. Please keep in mind that not all repair outfits are equipped to perform specialized CRT repairs.
In many cases, it is more economically viable to consider purchasing a newer unit, and keeping the existing unit as a source for parts. We have units in stock with less than 3,000 hours of use, and some with less than 500 hours of use, but they are not cheap.
Hope this helps...
