    Binocular method

    I have heard about this method when calibrating a HDTV. Does anybody know what this method would consist of?

      As an aid to doing convergence (of CRT RPTVs), you sit back from the screen and look at it through binoculars so you can see the lines up close. This way you're not standing or crouching to see the lines up close, and the remote works better too.

      That's all it is. Just one trick to make convergence easier.

            I thought you were supposed to calibrate it from closeup, and then look at it wrongways through the binoculars to check the appearance from your seating position.

              Toshiba 56H80: A Complete Review Including Calibration
              by Jeff Kowerchuk
              Well, I finally sealed up the calibration on my 56H80 and thought I would share my results. What follows is a review of the TV itself and the results of the calibration.

              As many are aware, the 56H80 is the latest model of Toshiba's 56" 16x9 set. After suffering at the hands of downconversion...

              Convergence Tool???
              by David Meek
              I was browsing another forum - yes, sacriledge, I know - and came across this "tool" for adjusting convergence more easily and accurately. What do you think? Bully or bulls#%*!?

              Convergence Tool

              I don't see exactly how it works, but am interested. . . . You know

              Divergence of the convergence
              by gianni
              It seems like lately, many folks here and at other forums are exploring using 2 ch gear in conjunction with their HT setups. I thought I was one of the few that would bother with this but I see this topic come up more and more. While I am satisfied with my RSX-1055 for movies and it does do a reasonably...

              Ground-plane measurement method

              Hi Everyone,

              I'm currently reading "Testing loudspeaker" by Joseph D'appolito and he seems to use the "ground plane" measurement method alot.

              I was wondering why nobody use that method ? It seems a bit easier than the "150 pound 4' x 8' infinite...
