Commodore 1701/1702/1084 and Amiga 1080 monitors can be used with
Apple IIe's.

In my opinion, the AppleColor Composite Monitor is the best
composite color monitor available. It has special video circuitry
that switches to high-bandwidth monochrome mode when there
is no color burst (text mode) that permits sharp 80-column
displays as well as good composite color on graphics screens.
Some people prefer RGB displays, but I find that most games
were written with composite color in mind, and think they look
better. (And, of course, RGB monitors don't use RCA inputs. ;-)
The AppleColor Composite is regularly available on eBay, though,
as always, a local source for monitors is to be preferred.

if it uses an RCA jack chances are any TV with an RCA input can serve
the function. thus just look for a nice TV...

That is the AppleColor Composite monitor that I referred to earlier
as the _best_ choice. ;-)

Also an excellent all-round video monitor. I have one hooked up to a DVD
player in my studio and the picture quality is a good bit better than
standard TV.

Even a composite monitor that doesn't show 80-column text clearly will
still show video clearer than a TV. I have a generic composite monitor
hooked up to my DVD player.

Do any Apple branded Apple II specific monitors have a built in speaker or
speakers so that one may hook up the RCA left/right outputs of a
DVD/VHS/Satellite Receiver/etc. to the Apple monitor for sound?
Currently I use a Commodore 1702 and also a Commodore 1084 for hookup to
my Apple II's as well as a cable box and a VHS player, and since both
those monitors have built in speakers, I route the sound into those
monitors for full audio/video playback.
Zorin the Lynx
filters, so a regular composite video signal looked HORRIBLE, with
relentless dot crawl.
Comb filters weren't needed to display the Apple II's video signal,
since it was non-interlaced and every line's color burst was clocked the
same...
