JVC makes LCoS based units, which they call D-ILA. It is LCD based, and is *NOT* DLP based. Only units built around the Texas Instruments DLP Chip are DLP TV's. DLP units are not LCD based, like the LCoS used in JVC D-ILA and the Sony SXRD. JVC does not make a DLP TV. JVC makes LCoS based units, which they call D-ILA. It is LCD based, and is *NOT* DLP based.

We have had our toshiba HD tv calibrated by professionals when we got it a few years ago. Since we have added a plasma and ran the Spyder on that TV with great results and went to the older toshiba HD and found the color wasn't as good as it was a few years ago and reran the Spyder on the toshiba to find the settings quite different than they were jotted down by the pro installers. I do realize a difference in the tools used to calibrate, but the picture is once again back to the right colors and settings. So I have found multiple uses for it in the last 7 months i have had the Spyder.... Plus go to your friends house and make them buy you dinner for maximizing the performance of their HD sets... older HD’s especially rear projections can change over time with the life of the bulb.
