Trade: Copy of Calibration DVD for Movie or something?

[willng24]

Hey Folks,

I apologize if this is outside the relm of this forum. I need a calibration DVD but I don’t see the purpose of buying one if it will only be used once. Would anyone be interested in trading a copy of their calibration dvd for say copy of a movie or something.

Thanks,

I'd recommend buying a calibration DVD, because you won't be using it just once. When you change things in your system or room, you'll want to recheck your calibration. I use my Avia disc all the time.

Same here. I own 3 different calibration discs, and use them repeatedly. Every time I change something, I recalibrate. (it gets faster every time once you know what you're doing) Also, over time, displays lose brightness, audio components get wear, etc, and calibration discs keep your components dialed in.

Plus, they usually have some good demo material, too, to test out or show off your system.

Where may I buy one? Ebay?

Do an internet search for Ovation Software, Avia, and/or Video Essentials. Amazon.com, (and many other DVD sales sites) Ovation's homepage, and others have them.
