So i went to see the sharp today.Thought i'd have a huge problem finding PJ's that i could actually demo.Not so.Found a place a 5minute walk from home that has the sharp9000 seleco ht300,Ls110,crt's etc etc.The first PJ i saw was the sharp...so here is what i saw...horrible blacklevels and muted colors and dismal brightness.But here's the kicker,the guy that helped me said that it was a brand new unit and uncalibrated.So here's what i need to know from you sharp owners.Out of the box are the blacklevels/brightness the same for you?The sharp was bieng projected onto a studioteck 1.3 gain 110inch diagonal screen and i brought dark city along to demo the PJ with.Right from the start it was a big light grey nightmare.When he went into the PJ's menu the boxes were bright and contrasty,but the movie was really looking bad.So is this really just due to the PJ bieng uncalabrated?Does the picture improve dramatically when calibrated?
