Cnet says these sets have a problem with green. Some reviews I read, rank these sets very high.
I saw JVC D-ILA sets at Fry's, Best-Buy and some did have a clear problem with green.
Is calibration a required step for consumers, is it possible to DIY without fancy spectrometers and is re-calibration to be expected?
I have seen about 10~12 of the JVC sets and have never seen a green screen. I feel the have a great picture.
But I haven't seen all of them.
With HDTVs a service contract is almost a must have. Fry's has very good service contract I used to work at FRY's (and I STILL go there to buy) Part of my job was to handle the service contracts. In my store if a customer had a service contract we were told to bend over backwards for them if possible.
Make sure a service contract will cover calibration and lamps. John
The green looked unmistakably yellow, especially side-by-side at Fry's you could see the yellow grass on the JVC and green on others. However, some JVC D-ILA sets looked just fine (maybe the store failed to calibrate their sets).
I am hesitant in getting an appliance that will surely fail, need all these maintenance and thinking of getting a smaller flat LCD just to avoid all this hassle.
