TV software/firmware version tested:

Below you'll find the settings I found best for viewing the TK in a dim room via the HDMI input. Your settings may vary depending on source, room conditions, and personal preference. Check out the Picture settings and calibration FAQ for more information.

Calibration notes: While the two-point greyscale worked quite well resulting in a very flat response, the Color Management System was not very good at all. Red was basically stuck in place and turned out very orange, and blue was more purple. Be aware that if you attempt to change any preset picture mode it automatically defaults to "Personal".
