The Easy, Affordable Way to Adjust Your HDTV for Perfect Color and Clarity
It’s a fact—TVs are setup "hot" by the manufacturer for display in brightly lit showrooms? That means their settings out-of-the-box often aren’t ideal for home viewing. Blacks can look washed out, whites too bright, details even fuzzy. The fast, easy fix without retaining a professional ISF calibrator with $10,000 worth of instrumentation: the award-winning Monster/ISF HDTV Calibration Wizard DVD, recently named Electronic House magazine’s 2006 Product of the Year!

See What the Pros Are Saying

"Leaving your HDTV at the factory picture settings is like installing a new air conditioner without setting the thermostat. Basic picture adjustments take less than five minutes and could improve your TV’s performance dramatically." Brent Butterworth, Editor-in-Chief, Home Entertainment Magazine

"Calibrating your television will likely have a far greater impact on the picture’s quality than the brand, features or technology used to create it."
Mike Wood, Editor in Chief
Digital TV & Sound

"Congratulations ISF & Monster. Using this DVD will significantly improve picture quality and give HDTV owners insight into the benefits of a complete professional calibration—and at a remarkable price!"
Kevin Miller
CNET, ISF Instructor

"This disc is simply invaluable. Short of bringing in an ISF guru, along with thousands of dollars of test equipment, the HDTV Calibration Wizard is the best and only way to go."
David Frangioni
Home Theater and Recording Studio Designer to the Stars

"Every Runco HDTV is engineered for ISF calibration. Understanding TV calibration is simple at our company—calibrating Runco HDTVs insures happy Runco HDTV owners. Buy this DVD—it will make your HDTV’s picture better. Period."
Sam Runco,
Runco International

"We manufacturer Faroudja HD processors, HDTV displays and Meridian DVD players. We consider ISF calibration to be an essential last step in optimizing your system to achieve the same performance as we do in the lab. Over the years, I have attended ISF training with all of my sales guys and we always carry calibration DVDs whenever we visit our dealers."
Norm Steinke
VP Sales Faroudja/Meridian

"High Definition video enhances the listener’s attachment to great sound! However, setting video levels for optimum color, black levels and contrast performance has always been a technical challenge for consumers. Our congratulations to Monster/ISF for creating an easy to use program to help even novice HDTV owners get dramatically better pictures."

 SAFETY TIPS

Important Monster® Performance and Safety Tips
Listen Responsibly

To avoid hearing damage, make sure that the volume on your music player is turned down before connecting your headphones. After placing headphones in your ears, gradually turn up the volume until you reach a comfortable listening level.

Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB), exposure to any noise at or above 85 dB can cause gradual hearing loss.

Monitor your use; hearing loss is a function of loudness versus time. The louder it is, the less time you can be exposed to it. The softer it is, the more time you can listen to it. Refer to the chart* below.

This decibel (dB) table compares some common sounds and shows how they rank in potential harm to hearing.
SoundNoise Level (dB)Effect
Whisper30Very quiet
Quite Office50-60Comfortable hearing levels are under 60 dB
Vacuum Cleaner, Hair Dryer70Intrusive; interferes with telephone conversations
Food Blender85-9085 dB is the level at which hearing damage (8 hrs.) begins
Garbage Truck, Cement Mixer100No more than 15 minutes of unprotected exposure recommended for sounds between 90-100 dB
Power Saw, Drill/Jackhammer110Regular exposure to sound over 100 dB of more than 1 minute risks permanent hearing loss
Rock Concerts (varies)110-140Threshold of pain begins around 125dB
"....a typical person can safely listen to an iPod for 4.6 hours per day at 70% volume."
"....knowing the levels one is listening to music at, and for how long is extremely important."

Use Responsibly

Do not use headphones when it's unsafe to do so - while operating a vehicle, crossing streets, or during any activity or in an environment where your full attention to your surroundings is required.

It's dangerous to drive while wearing headphones, and in many places, illegal because it decreases your chances of hearing life-saving sounds outside of your vehicle, such as another car's horn and emergency vehicle sirens.

Please avoid wearing your headphones while driving. Use one of Monster's FM transmitters to listen to your mobile media devices instead.

Learn how to establish a safe listening level and review other important safety guidelines from the Consumer Electronics Association at www.ce.org and the Deafness Research Foundation at www.drf.org.
