In a perfect world, we’d all have the time, technology and skills to expertly calibrate our TVs. Unfortunately, even as Tom’s Guide’s Managing Editor of TVs and AV, I don’t have that kind of time (or energy) to do that for every TV in my house.
Instead, when I bring one of the best TVs into the house, I focus on changing just one or two main settings to instantly get better picture quality — that’s usually all it takes to go from awful to amazing.
