Moving from DV to HD Monitor at DVinfo.net

I have moved from CRT to LCD for editing. But I need advice on what to purchase for a Monitor. Up till now I have been working with a 15 inch JVC TV style monitor. What is everyone connecting to their breakout boxes to see a quality video on HD or HDV that the client will view. Thanks for the help.

I am now using the Gateway 24 inch FHD2400 to edit with Premiere Pro 2. When I edited in DV I enjoyed my JVC CRT monitor for viewing the final product. I definitely need some advice on what to purchase for viewing my new HDV project in full screen while editing.

In many ways, that JVC NTSC monitor is still the best thing to use. What will your customers be viewing on? What will you be distributing your product on?

Thanks for the reply. My customers have a range between 4:3 and 16:9. I am at present away from my JVC monitor but I thought the HDV video would not display on this monitor and if it did the quality would be horrible. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.
