LCD TV Reviews

Unit-to-unit sample variations, the viewing environment, and the source might render these settings less than optimum. We strongly recommend that you confirm the results by using a good display setup disc to find the best settings for your sample, at least as far as possible short of a full calibration. The latter is best left to a trained and properly equipped technician, such as those certified by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF) or THX.
