I know. This thread started that forum.


He was just replying to this thread since it's related to the same TV.

Remember these are the settings that make one person's TV look good. But if you ever go into a store and look at the 150 TVs on the wall, you can tell that each TV is different, even if it is the same model.

Well said. I'm very happy since my ISF calibration. The improved 3d look, blacks and flesh tones are well worth it IMHO.

im trying to get a subforum section going in the display section (sort of like the PSP subforum found in the PS3 section)....and hopefully I can get stickies for each tv brand...

so I was thinking that the more popular brands are...(feel free to inform me of others) and the stickies would be called:

Sony
Pioneer
Samsung
Mitsubishi
LG
Sharp
Toshiba
Westinghouse
"Others"


do you think this would generally cover the average user? I figure, in each section members could list their TV model# and provide their settings.

Dont be hatin on the Panny guys

You're very welcome. That's why I posted the settings. I spent 2800 on this TV, so the calibration for me was a no brainer. I wanted the best picture possible for the money I spent.

BTW, very nice theater. I really like the sconces you have as well. Where did you get those from?

[ixlegitballinxl]

got the pair from kirklands, 30 bucks for both i believe

thanks for the compliment

I calibrated my tv using the sony kdl-52w3000 settings and the picture looks great. i have a sony PS3 80GB and i was wondering if anyone had the calibration setting for the PS3 connected with an hdmi cable to the sony kdl-52w3000 HDTV?
