HDTV Shootout Livestream

You are watching a live test we're doing of the broadcast stream. We pushing for the highest HD resolution and minimal compression to ensure the best possible video and audio quality possible.

Looking forward to many HTS members participation tonight at 6 PM EST and tomorrow afternoon at 1PM EST. Both days will be moderated by our staff senior a/v techs and some comments and questions will be read out loud for the panel of experts to answer.

Enjoy!

Kamakaro, correct and I'll add we are evaluating all flagship models from all premium TV manufacturers.

I've assembled a top team of video experts to do the calibrations and evaluations. Watch the live HD webcast tonight at 6 PM EST and tomorrow at 1 PM EST.

And you are ^^ 100% correct.

Thank you all and to the management of HTS for hosting this live event! We had a blast doing this and the attendees also loved the event.

My very special thanks to all who purchased raffles to win the 55" GT30 with all proceeds going to "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer"

My very best to you all!

BTW, the attendees voting results of the shoot-out along with the MLL readings and ANSI contrast ratios will be exclusively posted on HTS, my site blu-ray.com and Tweaktv.com.

HTS will be the very first place to have this information and it's likely to be posted later tonight.

Here's the link to download the .pdf file from the results of the audience's ballots of the two shoot-out event days.

Thank you Hutchinshouse. In the next days lots of additional information will be disclosed and discussed. Tomorrow I'll post the MLL's and ANSI on-screen contrast ratios. In the next days we'll have the results of the panel of experts.

Let me know if you have any questions.

-Robert

Hutchinshouse, ^^ that is definitely true and we're expecting the firmware fix very soon. Thanks to our expert team of master calibrators for identifying this issue and communicating with Sharp's engineers on exactly what we found and suggestions on how to make it perfect.

I just posted a .pdf of the Onscreen ANSI contrast ratios and MLL measurements for each display in the shoot-out event. I am so very happy to be the only company measuring and posting the true contrast ratios for these highly sought out TVs. Now the public can accurately compare the single most important attribute that makes up the picture quality.

The calibration reports will be added to my site later today.

In all fairness DeWayne said my 70" Elite had the exhibited the same teal color decoding error, but I don't see it to the same degree.

David Katzmaier of CNet and Chris Boylan's Big Picture Big Sound VE Shoot-out articles have just been published.

Enjoy!
