    ISF Certified Calibrator Recommendations!

    I would be happy to do them for you. I am proficient with both models. I live in Ohio and travel to Michigan all the time for calibrations.

    Video Games

    Yeah, I think you'll be alright, esp since you know about turning down the contrast. I had a Mits 60803, just 1 year older than your set, and I played video games on it for years with no problems. Now I bet if I had left the contrast in torch mode as set from the factory, I probably would have...

    Fujitsu plasma

    I second Seth's observation. Although I've only calibrated 1 Fujitsu plasma, and it was a model from perhaps 2 -3 years ago, I can say the new Pioneer Kuro Elites impress me more, though some samples have lower light output than others. The Panasonics are also very nice.

    Samsung LNT5265F or Panasonic TH50PZ700U?

    While both sets are good performers, my preference would be for the Panasonic. Neither set will produce anything near their rated contrast ratios in the real world. The Samsung will have higher light output, so it could probably keep up better with lots of ambient light. However, the Panasonic's...

    I cant find anyone to converge my projector!

    Too bad I didn't see this thread sooner. I'm very good at and comfortable with CRT PJs, and I'll be in northern NJ for the next 3 days. The sad thing is, I only have half a day free, and that's tomorrow evening. I just did full cal on a Runco 950, which is similar to the 6PG, down in NC. It took...

    Mint! Yamaha RX-V4600

    Hi Dorian, Hmmm, what kind of partial trades would you be interested in? In addition to the JVC THX Ultra 2 receiver, I have an Oppo 971 DVD player, or a Sony ES series 2 channel power amp. I also have a Dayton Audio Titanic 15 inch series 3 subwoofer in it's normal sealed enclosure, but...

    Hi all, I really, really like this receiver, but as a tweaker and calibrator I'm itchin' to get something with sophisticated room EQ. I've had it since new (about 9 or 10 months), and it is still under warranty. Perfect condition with all accessories, box, remote, and manual. I've owned many...

    Hey Wayne, You wouldn't be interested in a trade, would you? I have a Denon AVR-4802r (we might be able to work out differences in worth)... I'm also a very talented and dedicated ISF television calibrator that happens to service your area. (shameless plug):b Chad

    Interesting story behind this puppy. I did some ISF calibration work for a home theater retail store, and lo and behold they got bought out after I did the work and before they could pay me. They were not able to write me a check because of complications with their bank account. They were...

    FS: DBX Soundfield V 5 Floorstanding Speakers

    I remember reading a review of these in Stereo Review magazine. Truly unique and interesting speakers. I wish I had room for 'em. With all that reflected sound, I bet they'd make a good pair of full range surround speakers in a larger system.

    looking to trade my pioneer VSX-1014TX-K

    I've got a Sony ES 2 channel power amp. It is rated around 110x2, and it can be bridged. It has level controls on the front panel. It is cosmetically a little rough (a few nicks & scratches and the power cord plug has been replaced with a hospital grade plug which doesn't look so hot), but it is...

    Chris, How about an integrated amp? It's a Luxman LV-90. It's lower power than you listed (conservatively rated at 28WPC), but I have too much stuff! :)

    Hitachi UWX10B: Flicker and Misalignment

    I've seen similar problems with a couple different sets. It was the convergence board, which needed re seated in it's socket. I noticed on both sets that walking near the sets caused the convergence to jump in and out. Then I hit the floor with my hand, and each time the convergence jumped. I...
