You can go to www.tweaktv.com. They have calibration for different models. Hope this help.

Another option is to buy "VIDEO ESSENTIALS" which helps you calibrate your TV...no matter what the model is, 2 identical TV's could be calibrated differently....good luck!

here are a couple you can start with. i pulled these from avsforum and use a modified version of each for my ln52a550 (standard mode for cable, movie mode for blu-ray/ps3). note that each set is different so use this as a starting point and adjust to your liking.

(This with the mode at movie)

Thanks to all of you for your replies. Again, your help is greatly appreciated. I am going to get the DVE disc and try to calibrate my TV myself. If I don't like the result I might just hire a professional (preferably from ISF) to adjust my TV for me.
