What is the difference between an ISF calibrator, and what you got with the THX calibration?


I can only tell by observation and what I've heard and read, so I don't know how accurate it is.

With ISF, there are special modes that can be turned on in the tv (Like THX Cinema is a mode), but they have ISF tuning attributes separate from normal user access. I don't know what is there because I haven't seen it.

With THX, it's using the service panel, that's not necessarily ISF specific, but hardware specific.

Now, I might be totally wrong.. But if I am, I'll let someone more knowledgeable correct me.
