You bought a TV, plugged it in, connected your cable and your audio and wham....A PICTURE! My Sony was the same as your Sony!

Now, all of a sudden, we have to spend additonal funds on calibrating our TV's...why? I'll tell you this, I won't be spending $300 on a Pro-Cal for a TV I spent $1,000 of my hard earned money. It should be ready to connect like my old CRT!

PS~ I know the technologies are different...I'm just saying....why does it need to be.
I kinda agree with you john . I personally would not pay to have it done . I bought A calibration disc 20 Bucks , And was able to achieve A wonderful picture from the disc .

Sure I spent 3,000 dollars on my TV , But that Just does not mean that I should do it because it cost so much .

20 bucks is way better than several hundred bucks .
