The Imaging Science Fouudation has trained specialists all over the country who by appointment will visit you and calibrate your det to the correct gray scale and optimum contrast, brightness, color, tint, sharpness, and convergence using various test patterns and equipment.
If properly done this will give your display the best picture it can achieve and also assure longest set life. The charge is not cheap ($3-400) but worth it when you consider what the set cost and how enjoyable and long it will last. The problem you cite should be cleared up during this calibration.
BTW, if you have more than one color setting (typically nuetral, warm, and cool) ask the ISF person to set one for 6500K for color and another for 5400K for black and white.
