Hey All,
I just wanted to give an enthusiastic thank you to AVS for the heads up on David Abrams and Avical.
I live in the Los Angeles area and cannot recommend David's services enough.
After purchasing our Pioneer 5020 - I found David's information on the thread for calibrators that can adjust greyscale on the Pioneer xx20 models.
Working in the film industry, I ran David's name by several friends that are editors and work in Post and deal with color correction and the whole nine.
I was pleased to find that many studios also employed David for calibrating their edit bays. With this recommendation, I made the appointment.
David was amazing all the way through. After setting up the appointment 10 days after delivery of the 5020, to allow for break in, I was already impressed with David's customer service, as he made himself available to answer all of my questions before our appointment, during the break in period.
On the day of the appointment, David arrived on time, was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable.
And for the results of the calibration?
WOW!!!! It is amazing the results David got for us, especially on Movie Mode. After all the drama about the lack of features in the xx20 models, I cannot stress how estactic I am with the calibration results for movies and games, both look stunning and amazing.
I've had friends over that are working directors in the industry that are currently placing orders for Pioneer 6020 and 5020's because they were so impressed by David's results they didn't feel the Elite's justified the price difference.
I couldn't agree more. But without Dave, I would be listening to all the drama about my 5020, not realizing how sweet it's potential really is. As far as I'm concerned, the money I paid for the calibration was better spent than the extended warranty I purchased. Yes, it's that good.
Any Southern California owner that spends more than $1200 on an LCD or Plasma, you are doing a dis-service to your purchase by not having it properly calibrated.
David Abrams at Avical is your man.
When we go for our projector, I will definitely be using David and Avical again.
Thanks AVS!!
