2 out of 5 stars Didn't work good on a Fujitsu plasma   February 22, 2007
 5 out of 7 found this review helpful

I have the same problem that Xrayman does.
I was wondering if I had a faulty unit since it was an "opened" item and slightly discounted in the store where I bought it. I guess I'm not the only one who has this problem. My TV is a Plasma, for whatever that's worth. And I too found that the SpyderTV did not set things correctly. Color was much too saturated, and contrast and brightness were not correct. The only thing it did do was correctly choose the color temperature, which I do think is better than what I had it set to, so I'm now using SpyderTV's recommended color temp. But I reset everything else back to the settings I had already achieved by eye. I am going to try it out on an old CRT television and see if it works any better on that.

My plasma isn't new, and I would recommend that people do not use this product on a new plasma. It requires you to put a bright white square up on your screen for far too long. I had to run through 15 color temperature settings, letting SpyderTV take a reading on each one, while leaving the bright square up. Took at least 7 minutes. That will temporarily burn the square into a new plasma screen. ...and might throw off the remaining measurements that have to be taken.

This thing is amazing.. My Panasonic Plasma is like a whole new tv.. My 60" Sony SXRD paired with my PS3 and stand alone Bluray player is one of the best looking picture I have ever seen, after using the STV100 of course. With the costs that contractors charge for this service this is a must have.

Set up as directed. Color, contrast, brightness setting recommended seemed to be "too much". I had to tune them back to make the picture correct to my eye. I'll try it again with the room totally dark to see if that will make any difference.
