Cube Calibration In-Depth

May 13, 2013 by Chris Heinonen Leave a Comment

Last year at Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity, we bestowed a Best New Technology award on Cube Calibration.  Many people are familiar with the idea of calibration and getting your primary and secondary colors correct, but don’t think about the colors that come between those and white or black.  Cube Calibration takes a […]
