Hello,
Just wondering if anyone has had this TV calibrated, and if so, what are the "best" settings? Thanks in advance.

You will find a great deal of chat on this very topic. I read the whole thing after getting my Y657 on Jan 1. The 657 is half-way between a 65733 and 65734, so you'll have half the extras on the '34. Congrats on the big TV! I'm loving mine...can't wait til I get to see LOST in hi-def.....

Re: Settings for Y657 Mits?

hi

Mits makes a great set.

Make sure you turn the 120 Hz processing off as all it does is degrade the image.

Turn off the other processing / sharpness controls. The main sharpness should be around the 25% range.

Also remember that while this display is a 1080p display, it will only resolve 720 (not sure why..this is a design flaw).

All the color management stuff (CMS) is kind of cool to play with, but will do nothing to give you more accurate color.

Strongly consider gray scale calibration as the out of the box settings for the display are very red deficient.

Re: Settings for Y657 Mits?

Hey Gregg....interesting coments, but I'm a bit puzzled.

What 120Hz processing? This is a 60 Hz set, I believe. The 65734 might do 120, but I'm pretty sure it is just the xx8xx "Diamond" versions that have it.

Where do you hear that the set only does 720p? That would be a big shock...

Thanks for your comments!
