not that low
Hi again.
I can’t find SAD in the voltages? What’s it next too?
For reference, my voltages currently are
VOL RSTP: 006
VOL XPOFS1: 105
VOLXPOFS2: 063
VOL YKNOFS1 D: 084
VOL YKNOFS3: 094
VOL YKNOFS4: 141
VOL YKNOFSA D: 128
There’s loads more as you will know, but I cant be bothered to type them out
This is a ‘Nam flashback to 4/5 years ago! lol
Cheers.
Mike
I really took SAD down!
Aside from raising RSTP back up (and bringing the red tint back) any ideas about how I could fine tune out the occasional purple misfires I still get?
Hey all
Yeah it was completely purple all across the screen and utterly unwatchable. An utter mess! To be fair, that screenshot was just me bringing SAD down to rock bottom see how dark I could make the panel go. It was OLED black performance then! lol
I do get now why people are reporting near OLED black levels on their adjusted sets. Are people getting these results and managing to avoid any other side effects though (sparklies, black rain and misfires etc)?
I’ve put my voltages back to where they were again as it seems to be best compromise on my panel between no red tint and minimum side effects.

90 is too low black crush, and pic quality is effected imo and i have 26 thousand hours on mine
Getting my first KRP-500A today, been using a 4280xd for the last 10 years.
Getting quite excited about it now, been reading for years how good these sets are, hope it lives up to my expectations.
Anything i need to know, haven't got time to read through all 7 parts of the owners thread before this afternoon.
What is the best picture mode to have it on just to start with, best out of the box setting so to speak.
I will be using a sharp sound bar just to start with, do i connect this direct to the tv or the media box.
Asked the owner about the red tint thing but he had never heard anything about it, said he definitely hasn't noticed anything. Said the picture is just like the day he bought it.
Seems a very genuine guy, he seems to know bit about tv's but i don't think he is an enthusiast like people on here. He just bought it because of all the good reviews he had read about it.
He has owned it since new, and it has only been used in the evenings, so milage might not be too high. He said it is in mint condition, and is fully boxed with all accessories, it's all just like when he purchased it.
I don't think i will go looking for the red tint, i will just see if i notice it.
He has replaced it with a C9, but he said the picture is much more natural on the KRP.
Seems mad that you have to buy a 10 year old tv to get the best all round picture quality (possibly).
I bought mine off a chap on here and there was no mention of red tint and I didn't go looking for it but still found it almost immediately and it was pretty bad. Based on what I'd read though I was expecting it either from the start, or in time depending on how many hours the set had done, so I wasn't overly upset. Got into the service menu and it had done well over 25000 hours so certainly well used! I wonder if some people just don't notice it if it's gradually creeping up on them but coming from an 8th gen set, that I don't think suffers from the same problem, it may seem more obviuos to you that it was to the original owner. Don't worry though, it's very easily fixed if it is an issue for you.
Got it for £250 so not a big gamble, peanuts for what i am getting.Congratulations it's a fine screen... if it gets tweaked it will deepen the blacks as well as rid the tint... then the other colours pop more.. Ive had the last gen kuros for 11 or so yrs and before that had a 7 series and it was a night and day difference...it is hard to get the same sort of natural picture a plasma produces but I eventually found it though in the Panasonic line of OLED tv.. only used for bluray discs in a dedicated room whilst the other kuro is still in front family room...good blurays will be great in full HD and the 4khdr is a sight to behold but the krp cant do that ... however grainy blurays look better on the pioneer to my eye and as an all round set it's hard to beat especially for the price you can get them now... hope you got a good deal on it..
