AVIA vs Video Essentials, which one?


I've personally never used either of these callibration disks. However I've heard many good reviews of using them and the outstanding performance enhancement they provide. So my question is, which is better and/or which do you people prefer and why?

I own DVE but had used AVIA. I think AVIA is easier to navigate thru/use then DVE. I also chose DVE as it was cheaper.

First of all, please don't bump posts.

Second, look in the HTF Beginner's Primer and FAQ (link in my signature). There is a detailed comparison of Avia vs. Video Essentials.

I prefer DVE, its newer and It seemed to make more sense to me. to each his own. Honestly, I think its almost time for a new one to be made with more advanced calibrations but even more user friendly.
