    What exactly is the meter that you are using? Is it some kind of software program? I will certainly contact you when I get the set. I ordered it from Crutchfield, they had a pretty good price, $2179 with no tax and shipping included, they also had the Sony Finance 0% for 24 months which was nice. I also ordered a Standout Designs stand to set it on, they were really nice to deal with, they even extended a promotion that had went out already for me. If any are in the market for a stand, I recommend their service, I havent gotten the stand yet, but I will comment on it when it arrives.

    It's a cheaper version of a meter a professional calibritar would use. Its a colorimeter for setting grayscale, which cannot be done by eye.

    I received my Regza today. So far I am very happy with it the picture is excellent. I tried the settings that you recommended earlier in this thread. Do you have any updated settings?

    Here's the current, just from my experimentation

    Movie Mode

    Backlight 40-45
    Contrast 85-90
    Brightness 10
    Color 3
    Tint 8
    Sharpness 0

    Color Master OFF
    Color Temp (all) 0

    I am not using auto backlight, but it works well

    Dynalight ON
    Dyn Contras 0
    Gamma -3
    Resolution + works to sharpen SD
    NR (both) OFF
    240HZ ON
    Film Smooth

    Backlight 44 and Contrast 85 are about 41footlamberts

    Hahaha. I've found the backlight scanning helps smooth the picture a little more, and I tend to prefer it. It does reduce light output though, so you have to compensate!
