Most HDTVs look perfectly fine straight out of the box nowadays, without any kind of professional or DIY calibration. But in an effort to crank up the quality somewhat bit more, it’s much easier than you watched .
Sound and Vision says it’s best to start out by letting your set warm up for a half hour or so, and setting the lighting for your room to the levels you’ll typically use while parked on the couch. From there, all you’ll need is a Blu-ray player and a $25 – $30 calibration disc that’ll guide you through tinkering along with your picture settings. Just don’t start messing around without instruction-you would possibly emerge as making your image worse than it was before you touched it. With a bit patience, you’ll turn out to be with better color reproduction, contrast, and brightness.
Sound and Vision’s full guide is simple to follow and price a read-after dumping a grand or so into a new set (or less, when you lucked out this Black Friday), why not drop in a touch extra investment to make ‘er shine? [ Sound + Vision ]
