Display Calibration

SpectraCal – The Definitive Color Science and Calibration Resource

SpectraCal specializes in the tools and training necessary to achieve images representative of the content creator’s intent for environments from low to high ambient light while achieving the colorimetry, contrast, and dynamic range necessary for the image to have the proper impact on the viewer.

SpectraCal’s award-winning CalMAN software was developed to support the display calibrator in the step by step process of screen optimization. From its inception it has earned rave reviews and has become the preeminent display calibration software package on the market, compatible with virtually all color meters available today. SpectraCal’s PC monitor calibration software CalPC expanded the strong CalMAN foundation to add on innovative features like Auto White Balance, Direct Display Control (DDC), and Hot-Swap ICC Profiler tool to allow any user to calibrate their monitor(s) quickly, easily, and accurately in less than 10 minutes.

SpectraCal is proud to distribute and support some of the finest display calibration meters on the market including Photo Research, Konica Minolta, Klein, and X-Rite. With accurate meters accompanied by CalMAN and CalPC software, the calibration technician has the tools to achieve their goals and meet their clients’ requirements.

The foundation of screen optimization through display calibration is to understand the elements in a display that require adjustment and how each element inter-relates to the others. SpectraCal is the leading supplier of technical training on calibration in the world representing manufacturer training as well as from industry associations such as ISF Commercial, Digital Signage Display Experts, and ISF Home Theater.

SpectraCal is here on the Home Theater Forum to provide you the members a place to ask questions and participate in discussions to better understand color calibration and learn about the available tools to optimize your displays.
