I am selling a complete Colorfacts 7.5.7 Pro software package with both an Eye One Spectroradiometer and a Spyder2 colorimeter and an Accupel HDG-2000 HDTV pattern generator.  If you need a test DVD I'll throw one in with it.


Colorfacts was the gold standard in ISF calibration software packages before CalMAN Pro came along. I have the original program on CD, plus the latest version 7.5.7 on CD, plus the extremely important licence dongle, so you'll be getting fully licenced software.


I have 2 Eye One Spectroradiometers, one of which I will be including with this system (your choice).  One is the Eye One Monitor, which is exactly the same as the Eye One Pro, just an older version.  It was just factory recalibrated by X-Rite in spring of this year.  Possibly because of it's age, it has a poorer signal to noise ratio than the Eye One Pro described below.  That means at low stim (10-20%) it will be less consistent with it's readings and will be more fussy with dark readings.  But at 30% and above, because it was just recalibrated, it will be super accurate.


You may choose instead an Eye One Pro, which is the latest version as far as I know.  It was bought in Dec '07.  It has not been factory recalibrated, but it has an extremely good signal to noise ratio.  It is more consistent, stable, and accurate with low stim measurements (10-20%).  I have the tripod mount and the suction cup holder for it.


I am also including a Spyder2.  It's not very accurate on it's own, but it's pretty good with low stim consistency. You can use Colorfact's meter training to profile it off the Eye One on each display you use it on and then you will get very accurate results with better low stim consistency than the Eye One and no dark reading headaches.


Finally, you will be getting an Accupell HDG-2000 pattern generator.  It outputs 1080i and 720P component and RGB.  Much of the lettering on the front panel has worn off, which is common of all Accupels, but otherwise it's in good condition.  I lost the wall wart power supply so I bought a universal PS for it that works fine.  I have the manual and cables (HD-15 to 5 BNC and HD15 to component) for it.  It is totally manual control; no automation.  No HDMI or DVI either, but at least it'll do HD component.


I am selling everything together as a package for $1600 OBO.  Colorfacts 7.5 with the inferior Spyder3 sells for about $3500 new.  I will also entertain interesting trade offers.
