YES I agreed! Audition at shop even side-by-side will not yield the accurate result. Most ppl tend to carry away by the better calibrated tv. For best, you have to set both sets to default, meaning 0 settings for all the picture settings. Feeding both with same source using the same type of cable, ie both hdmi cables with near similar length.


In fact, IMHO, it is not that easy and straight away you give star rating over another one in just short time of comparison. Even those pros from establish audio/visual magazine take hours to come out with overall result. 1 unit may looks vibrant in colours until you forget to tell its counterpart has better black levels or contrast. Maybe the vibrant colors are overkill or not natural, picture motion etc.....breaking into few section to compare & come out with overall ratings!
