Optimizing 3D's potential using Darbee Video Processors

That's how I started but I love it so much and I feel it makes even more of a difference with cable. I would switch inputs back and forth until I got a new receiver and fixed the problem. I keep it very low for high quality sources like blu-rays but increase it for cable. Some say no way, anything that alters the image in any way is bad. I say it's awesome and wouldn't watch anything without it. Try it and see for yourself.

Hi althus,

Thanx so much.

So though it would not improve the depth, it does add more detail to the 3D picture as it does with 2D, up converted DVDs?

Not worried about one input for blu ray since I use my set's "custom" for 3D and standard blu ray, "standard" for my DVD-Rs (record a lot from Turner Classic Movies) and "vivid" (considerably lowered to compensate for picture brightness) for standard DVDs. But would like to use it for cable as well yet that would indeed mean disconnecting and reconnecting.

Did read where it can be used with a HDMI splitter and switch box. Already have a splitter I'm not yet using for the input and can get a switch box can use for the different outputs I use (cable settings are slightly different from blu ray).

UPDATE: Gave in and just ordered it. With bonus points from Crutchfeld cost was $139. Will arrive on Tuesday.
