A blasphemy....I know....


Recently I had occassion to go to an audio/video store, which is usually painful for me--but I went to help a friend purchase a new TV.
I saw the new RGBY, note the added Y in that statement.
Sharp has a new unit, (others I'm sure to come) that has Red, Blue, Green, AND YELLOW!
The difference at first, until my eyes adjusted to the store and the 'millions' of other TV's seemed notable, but not revolutionary.
WRONG! After about 15 minutes of comparing others TVs as my buddy wasn't going to jump and pay more--I focused, (no pun) on the RGBY. WTF!!!!
Man this set is really something. Colors such as rich browns, and coral colors, and even the infield grass at the Ky Oaks was brilliantly better.
Anyone else seen this???

Back to my first love now, AUDIO and WOMEN...
(Not usually in that order)lololol

some of you are confusing the mixing of pigments to produce color, and spectra of light. They are not the same thing and do not work the same way. Mix all the colors on your palette, you get a dark, dirty gray. All the colors in the spectra combined equals white, clear light.

Most monitors reproduce only about 70% of the color spectrum in an NTSC signal. The best ones (e.g., Sony Qualia) produce the whole enchilada. You don't know what you're missing until you see it done right, as apparenly Larry did.
