If this gets ANY views I`ll be shocked. here goes...
I just calibrated the video with AVIA home theater DVD. The picture looks a bit dark but that`s to be expected, I haver to get used to it for a week or so. btw I DON`T HAVE AN HD TV .
I also did the surround sound and was wondering what the point of reference is. Do I keep the volume at REFEerence (62) and adjust to 85 decibels each speaker?
Actually every room is different and has to be calibrated seperately. The acoustics of a room varies a lot with different size, furnishings, shape, texture, carpet etc. You need an SPL sound pressure level meter for measuring/calibrating. You sit in the "sweet spot" where you will watch the movie/listen to music and set ALL the channels to the same decibel level, In this case 85 decibels at Ref (62).
The problem I`m having is what do you measure from? What reference point? 62=ref? or some other number?
I know it`s a long shot. but there are a few guys out here that can answer this.
Thanks bro. Your an interesting member. You`ve been on here forever and have 800 posts and HUGE amount of karma. That tells me your karma/post ratio is enormous. Your efficiencey is a great accomplishment my friend. thanks again. I`ll send you k for that.
The only way to get an exact calibration of the entire system is to use a Sencore VA63 waveform analyzer.
I have one,but it is for professional use cost $4200.00
