To add to what SumSuperman is suggesting: I used ControlCal to configure the ISF Day/Night settings in my Kuro 111-FD and it made an improvement over the standard options. Next, I had my Kuro calibrated by one of the country's best ISF calibrators. The Pro-ISF calibration resulted in a huge improvement in my display. DNICE's settings are close, but no cigar.

DNICE does provide a very good service.

OK that is what I figured, thanks guys for the input. D-Nice settings people seem to be happy with. But he could not possibly have a setting for everyone's home. I really want mine calibrated to my specific home lighting.

I also found out that all the Elite models have the ISF setting menu when you hook your TV to a router via internet. But you have to have a password. I am sure if you tried hard enough you could find it.

I think I am going to stay out of it and hire someone when I have the money.

That's only on the Monitors (i.e. PRO-141FD etc) and the Web Interface only has a few controls, not the important ones needed for a proper calibration.

for the Pioneers, it is recommended to use a Chroma 5 or EyeOne Pro Meter, CalMAN or ColorHCFR Calibration Software (Chroma 5 is not supported in ColorHCFR).

We have Bundles available to our Forum Members.

Quick question when I put my ear up against the machine with the power turned on I hear a slight buzz. I have the Pro-110FD. Does anyone else experience the same thing.

Thanks,

Joe

Yes a slight buzz when the power is turned on is normal for Pioneer plasmas. The manual for most models mentions this. The buzz can be slightly louder on some models during bright scenes. The buzz usually can only be heard from 1 or 2 feet back with the audio turned completely off.

CM huge favor to ask....anyway you can take two pics...one in ISF Day mode and one in Perf mode. I would really like to see the diff between the two before I get it calibrated.
