@NCWC916 It's not Best Buy's place. Only specialized companies like THX or ISF can train you properly.

@Diego2thebay Blue is often the biggest difference. The human eye is very sensitive to blue light so companies blast the blue levels to attract you without you even knowing. Those blue xenon car headlights are the SAME lumens as halogen bulbs but the blue coloring gives the illusion that its brighter.

I had this done! It takes about three months to see the glaring differences with non calibrated TV displays, they all look like garbage. It really makes a shocking difference, but also a curse cause you won't want to watch a non calibrated TV...

okay yes the service does cost $200 but it is NOT something a regular person can do. the tools that the techs use is only available to them. Plus , a normal person would not be able to get into the menus that the techs access in order to calibrate the tv with just a remote and a calibration disk.

@justice2576 $200!
Complete rip off. Anyone with half a brain can buy a calibration disk and get a comparable improvement in a tv's picture quality for 1/10 of what Best Buy charges for this. Or just go on AVS forum, and look-up your particular tv set to get an idea on improved settings.

The speaker in the video doesn't even have a High School Diploma, yet we're "supposed" to believe he knows what he's talking about....
hahahahahahaha

Well that video looked legit, I didn't know there were such tools.
I thought it was some 18 year old that just plays with the remote.
I still wouldn't trust a female to do this service to my TV's.

Fuck geek squad....this vid is so fulla shit, Im a home theater installer. Ive had my own side biz for 5 years now. I know the tricks n tools of the trade. These guys dont train their workers like that, in some type of wyotech setting. ive tried getting a job with them and all they want is PROs that are already certified and seasoned. They are NOT willing to train anybody. I laughed when I seen that fake classroom setting.

Tv's do NOT come set out of the box. Manufacturers typically turn UP the contrast in order to max out whites and set color temperatures to high or cool which then give ur whites a bluish hue to give the ILLUSION they're even brighter. They do this because we as humans associate bright with good. The truth is a good tv is an accurate one. Calibration dials in all colors, blacks, whites, gamma, color temp and light output. Its for this reason mf now incorporate these settings on newer sets.
