JVC had their newest monitor which does 4:4:4 which was good as we had a 4:4:4 feed going to all the other monitors. Color wise, they were all pretty much in the same ballpark.
The Sony BVM (very expensive) held up the best going off axis.
Different folks picked different monitors as their favorite, I hope some of them will sound off here like Greg Huson and Steve Hullfish.
One of the things we had in the loop was a ramp which really showed the 10 bit / 8 bit issue. Sitting side by side, you could see some banding in the JVC that was not there in the Sony PVM and BVM monitors.
We also had the JVC 3D monitor playing back some 3D footage and our logo in 3D. That was pretty cool, but I'm not about to sit around my house wearing glasses. We had trailers from two different movies, on was done correctly (Journey to the Center of the Earth) the other not (My Bloody Valentine 3D). It really pointed out how hard it is to do 3D correctly.
