Had my KRL37 for a few months now and at first you are blown away by the picture compared to your old crappy set.

But now it has bedded in to my lounge, I am concerned I don't have the optimum settings as my eyes keep finding niggly things such as wobbly pixels when the picture pans.

I have 100hz on and PureCinema off but I still can't shake that wobble - is this something all LCDs suffer from?

Any tips welcome, or if anyone else has this set can you tell me what your settings are?

Just get Zulu on Blu-ray and relax: you will be mesmerised beyond that which is healthy. wink

Hi Simon - don't worry, still loving the set, just think I have buggered up the settings somehow (plus I think my aerial is knackered which probably does not help).

Watched King Kong (PJ version) upscaled with PureCinema setting on advanced the other day. I almost cried at how good it was.

There are no such thing as 'definitive' picture settings.

If you get the set calibrated it will be calibrated for your viewing environment and to your sources.

A worthwhile way to spend a few hundred quid, all things considered.

Matt - good point. Forgetting that no one room/house is the same lighting/decor/aerial signal.

I will have a play around and see what happens.

Im not too familiar with that set but generally plasma and lcd sets seem to be endowed with many 'digital picture enhancments' noise reduction, super contrast etc....
Id say switch the lot of as usually they have side effects for example turning the noise reduction on full will turn a regular snooker ball into a comet, or super contrast+ makes dark scenes TOTALLY black so you cant see anything.
Turn em off then fiddle with each setting so you know what it does to the picture, if you cant see it doing anything then turn it off and leave it off.
