In Reply to: Does the ISF Calibration last the life of the HDTV ? posted by HiFiSoundGuy on November 27, 2009 at 06:34:25:
I don't know, myself. I have not even had a calibrated display for 6 months yet.You may have more available calibrators in your area. Otherwise they tend to do "tours" within a certain large area, and you are partly paying for their time and travel expenses etc. It may not cost much less for a "touch-up" because of that: still the same travel etc. that sucks up the time. Perhaps if coming to the area already for a full cal they will drop by and do a touch-up for cheaper.
I hope I didn't sound discouraging about the way the piccy looks. I just meant that it's really different from what you'll typically see in homes/bars etc. It is almost the antithesis of why many people like plasma/LCD displays, and the way they're advertised (vibrant colors, bright, sharp). If you've done your own "cal" before using a test BD/DVD, then you won't be so surprised by the look. What I really meant is the display is calibrated to a standard, and the standard may not be to your preference. Similarly, you may not happen to like the sound of a "flat" room (or a system calibrated to be flat in the room), even though most would say that is at least theoretically a good thing. But you get used to them in a short time, and it's the visitors who'll think it looks (sounds) weird.
