Vizio
continues to creep into homes at a rapid pace. Samsung's still
dominates the mind share of the average Best Buy consumer, but a year
from now, the entire landscape may be different. Our calibration
professionals came across these three Vizio's and we are pleased to
offer the latest suggested settings.
Pros: At about $2,500 on line, the UN55C7000 is relatively inexpensive for a 55-inch Edgelit LCD panel. Good feature set with very good connectivity. 3D ready.
Cons : Very poor black uniformity. Choppy gamma that is much too high in the dark parts of the picture robbing the display of much shadow detail.
To Buy Or Not To Buy ? The unevenness of the blacks and the lack of shadow detail due to the poor gamma make it impossible for me to recommend this set.
Every single day we receive countless requests. Many of the requests have the same question. "I want the best picture quality, what is the best HDTV made?" The answer is the Pioneer KRP-500/600M series. Attached are the suggested settings based off of a TweakTV professional calibration .
We are starting to see new HDTV's pop into our rotation of in home calibrations. We are expecting more 3DTV's in the short term, but we just came across the new C series Samsung's. Quick review(s) of the product to soon follow. Enjoy the exclusive TweakTV suggested settings for the two new C7000 series Samsung LED HDTV's.
Equine Brutality,

... and other matters.
Look, I hate to beat
a dead horse, ...well, maybe occasionally I ... O.K., O.K., I love to
milk a topic that deserves it, and this horse ain't runnin' off into
the sunset anytime soon. Yup, I'm talking about the NEW stallion on
the block, 3D. While most periodicals are still gushing "2010 is
the year of 3D", I'm more convinced than ever that it won't be.
Clearly, the hype will be excruciatingly loud and constant for the remainder
of the year, but the substance will remain elusive.
This winter has been a busy one for the TweakTV team. We have
calibrated more than a handful of Samsung, LG, Sony, Sharp and
Panasonic HDTV's
over the past month. It looks like the cold winter months is turning
us into some serious HDTV viewers. We are glad to help you all in need
with our personal, in home calibrations. As you may know, from these
professional calibrations we get FREE suggested settings for you. Here
are two highly requested Vizio's.
