Worth the Value

After debating, and doing my research (from consumer reports, calling samsung, reading reviews, and talking to television gurus) I decided to get my television calibrated after 4 months and it was the best investment that I have made on my set.
So let's start by some concerns that I had, first, I thought I could do it on my own by buying a dvd online about $20 and following the instructions, but it turns out that A. All you are really doing is playing with the colors and you are not really affecting anything on the set. B. if you play with the service menu you are voiding the manufactures warranty and run the risk to ruining your television. Second, I thought the price was too high. A. Well it turns out that if you get an ISF Certified technician outside best buy it was going to cost me $700 to do a house call as he explained to me that his equipment cost a lot of money. So I guess best buy price is a bargain for a technician who is Certified through the ISF institute and as they use the same equipment that private parties use. B. for something that is going to give me a good value and best picture on my television for a one time fee I think it's well worth it.
If you are on the fence I would recommend you do your research and find out for yourself. Personally, I would recommend you do it, you will not regret it. If you decide to get it, I would highly recommend that the person who watches television the most is home when they calibrate the set.
What's great about it: Longer life, energy saver, best picture
What's not so great: the wait time
I would recommend this to a friend!
