Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Lower End Reference Monitors

 


I was looking for a price range, but it seems that JVC is the vote of the list anyway, so I guess we can assume they fall within your budget.

Good luck with all of it.

Best,
Shirley

Thanks for your response. It means pretty much what it implies. We have
multiple rooms to upgrade -- and the capital expenditure will NOT generate or be
offset by increased revenue from clients. Therefore, we looking to achieve the
holy grail of "good enough".

@Dave Spraker

Thanks for your feedback.

Are you referring to the DT-R24L41DU -- or to a different model?

I understand the inherent limitations of LCD monitors -- but what is your
opinion of the detail available in the blacks?

And, do you have any thoughts regarding the monitor's vertical off-axis
performance? More specifically, if your Avid monitors were 24" and were mounted
very low to your working surface (say, only 3" inches above) -- and the JVC was
sitting directly above your Avid monitors -- would you consider the JVC's
performance to be compromised by being slightly higher than eye level? Would
you feel it was necessary to "aim" the JVC at a slightly downward angle in order
to achieve an on-axis orientation? Or would you prefer to put the JVC at the
same elevation as your Avid monitors -- just off to the side?

Also, if you're using it, what is your opinion of the Calibration Software?
http://tinyurl.com/63nlaoz And, which colorimeter are you using?

Sorry for the barrage of questions. Thanks for your feedback.
