I'm exhausted searching through options for the past few hours... when a monitor seems ideal, it ends up having something to it that compromises it entirely.
Here's the criteria I need the monitor to meet:
1. Must be 22".
2. Must be 1680x1050, and capable of at least 720p (I want HD).
3. Must have an audio out jack so I can plug speakers in.
4. Must have a great response time.
Went through these monitors already:
Samsung 225BW - light leakage issues
Samsung 226BW - three different variants, only one is good, others are shoddy... and you have to pray you get the right one
Asus AL2216W - Mediocre image quality - does it have an audio out jack? I don't know... looked for it
ViewSonic VG2230wm - Amazing... except no audio out jack
HP 2207 - 1440x990, not what I need
Hanns-G HW-223DPB - Can't find anything on this, but it seems amazing... audio jack? If yes, likely getting this one due to awesome reviews
I probably forgot about one or two that I already looked over. Bleh.
So, it's basically down to these, plus whatever you can suggest to me:
Asus AL2216W - audio jack? Yes? No?
Hanns-G HW-223DPB - ditto on the "idk if it has an audio jack" thing.
Please help.
