LCD TV Reviews

Settings
Unit-to-unit sample variations, the viewing environment, and the source might render these recommendations less than optimum. They are provided only as a useful starting place.

We strongly recommend that you confirm the results on your sample by using one of the many display setup DVDs that are available, such as Digital Video Essentials. This will help you to set the user video controls correctly.

The settings here that are most likely to translate reliably from one sample to another are those involving specific features, such as Dynamic Gamma and Noise Reduction. The ones likely to translate less well are the Color Temperature calibration and Color Management settings. Precision test tools, used by an experienced calibrator, are still required to use such controls with precision.
