Yes indeed.
A friend of mine, keen on bargains and deals, got a floor model 55" Samsung plasma and the colours are whitewashed out.
I helped him tweak the settings but to no avail.

I am not 100% there isn't a signal issue, but most of his channels, with satellite look like crap compared to our feed. Watching hockey is like watching a snow storm.

It wasn't the "Winter Classic" you were watching then, with authentic snow?

60"ers are getting rare indeed.
If you can... Find a kuro 6020.
Change out the audio board...
Viola !! Elite 151 plasma.
Opens alls modes for calibration
Did this my self on mine. (pure)
Info. on the avs forums under "plasmas"
You can do this with the 5020 as well.
Cheap way to get a top of the line set.

Cheers

Neat. I found this step-by-step: http://www.hippotechsolutions.com/?p=2613

I'll probably order the Elite board, even if I don't plan to do this mod right now, it'd be nice to have it around while I can still get them.
