hey guys! ok, well i started calibrating my Sony 55XS955 LCD RPTV last night & need some tips on getting it just right. I'm using a SPYDER2PRO colorimeter to take screen measurements along with a COLORIMETER SPREADSHEET. i started out by adjusting contrast, then brightness using AVIA. brightness setting is at a low 17 ticks in user menu, contrast is up at about 60 ticks. SPYDER screen measurements from 20-100 IRE are pretty close to D65 x 0.3127 y 0.329 (10 IRE way off, guess SPYDER can't accurately read that low). ok, now need some help getting my Gamma curve a bit closer to 2.5. i'm at about 3.0 right now, adjusted CUTS & DRIVES in service as much as possible while keeping RGB color % close to 6500K. by setting Gamma Corrector to low in my user menu helped, but if i bring it up anymore, the blacks start to look too grey. DeltaE is averaging from 2-4 across the IRE scale. i will say one other thing about my low (20-30) IRE's, they look quite a bit reddish. just looking for someone with a bit more knowledge than myself to help me get my greyscale & gamma a bit better.

thanks so much for everything guys!!!
Carmine.

Greetings

Aside from how Tri stim pods don't work well with bulb based digital devices. You typically get results that are too red.
