Digital Video Essential DVE Disc


Has anyone tried out the DVE DVD for calibration? I just purchased a JVC HD-ILA 61" 1080i rear projection. My only question in stores they look so vibrant and real. At home through HD channels they do look much better than digital but not so lively. Any input is appreciated.

Al -

Can you say "torch mode"? Plasmas and LCDs come out of the box set to that vibrant level in order to look good under the bright lights. Very few owners would choose to keep those settings.

Check the ratings for the calibration DVDs. Some are better or more popular than others. From what I've seen, the AVIA is okay, but the AVIA II is not as well received. Sound&Vision seems to have a fairly positive review, but I haven't seen it.
