As promised, here is the summary of replies I received
concerning my query about multisync monitors for the Amiga.

I received the most positive feedback for the Mitsubishi
Diamond Scan.  The majority of those who responded favorded the 
Diamond Scan as the all-around best monitor for the Amiga.  The 
one consistent dislike of users of the the Diamond Scan is a 
perceived dim display.  Color saturation and compatibility were
very good.

The NEC 2 A received the worst rating among all replies because it 
doesn't support the Amiga.  I got mixed reviews here; some replies 
said the 2A did not work at all, and some folks said they had    
used a 2A, but the monitor did not completely support the Amiga   
display.  I don't know...you'll have to do your own research
to clarify.

The NEC 3D got mixed reviews.  I had horror stories of wavering
displays and poor color saturation.  I also had one response that
raved about the excellent quality of the display and the wonderful
color saturation.  You'll have to check this one out on-site.

Finally, I recieved some favorable comments about the Sony 1303
(the 1304 does not work with the Amiga).  It offers good color,
crisp images, and a good price.

That pretty much sums up the replies I received.  This is by
no means an exhaustive comparison, but it does reflect the 
content of those replies I received.  Thanks to everyone who 
replied.  If I get any new information, I'll pass it along.
