It's reflective. It's a custom aftermarket balanced cable for HD800s and when you shine a light on the cable, sometimes that happens. The tube amp is the Eddie Current Balancing Act and the DAC is a GNSC modified Wadia 27.

Did some upgrades to my room.

I've heard though from multiple sources that Spyder 3 Pro is better for wide-gamut than the Eye1.

Got my third monitor. Finally no issues. So according to that review, the standard preset mode is the most accurate in regards to colors? I want to know which preset mode I should use before I calibrate with my Spyder.

Well the new one has a scratch on the monitor, screwing up a couple of the pixels I think.

Just so people are aware, my monitor didn't display any of the problems pedophile had. Just that one damn pixel.

Got monitor but there is a stuck pixel that refuses to go away so the monitor is going back I guess.

Mine should arrive tomorrow. Now buyer's regret is starting to sink in.

I've already tried with the 15%, just waiting for some sort of response. Unfortunately I was under the impression that the last one was restricted to the 3011. I have a couple of 20% coupons but they won't honor them even though there shouldn't be any restrictions. I might have to end up...

It's a $1500 monitor. It's not exactly for the taking for the masses. The ZR30w had less than 50 pre-orders before they started shipping. So somehow the 3011 got ten times that in less than a week?

Unfuckingbelievable. People used up that 10% coupon already. Jesus I was going to order on Tuesday. Now I have to hold off.

The 10 percent coupon worked but having problems getting that 15 percent coupon. Ground shipping for me with the 3008 was less than 2 days so it's not like it's floating for a week.

@Ashok0 Of course not. *Grabs pitchfork and torch* Everybody knows forums only exist to reaffirm people's decisions and make them happy.

Anyone have a 2711 in portrait mode with a 30 inch in landscape?

Are you sure about that? The 20 percent off coupon didn't work for the 3011 so I'm wondering if all the coupons don't apply for the 3011.

Dell small business newsletter coupon.

The 20 percent coupon doesn't work with the 3011.

Does anyone know if Dell is still doing the small business coupon? Also thinking about trying to get Dell to replace the 3008 with the 3011 as someone had some luck on that front.

The chart is pretty impressive. Are you sure about the 3011's vertical height? I am under the impression that a 30inch 16:10 is still wider than a 16:9 27 inch.

You can if you get a monitor arm and switch the monitor to portrait. I'm just wondering about what the resolution would be for both monitors if I did so.

I'm trying to decide which monitor would be better in portrait mode. I already have a 3008 and want a 2nd monitor to put on the side.

Is there really a reason to upgrade from the 3008 anyway? The Cnet review didn't compare both Dells after calibration did it?

Are they still doing the small business discount? I might wait till Rev 2 comes out though. Would November be a safe bet around then?

Holy shit. $1500? Wow. I might actually order another monitor then.

You're right, I didn't think that through. It'll be around the 5k range at minimum. Over $10k I think is pushing it. It also depends when they release it, for example if they can reduce manufacturing costs by end of next year then this could be closer to $3k.

That's going to cost a fortune. Atleast over 2k range if not over 3k range. Next question is about resolution.

So there isn't any estimates in regards to what the values should be? I pretty much need to mess around with the colors to get the lowest Delta E value and then calibrate?

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but the wider the gamut, the more the colors will be oversaturated so the ZR-30w will look worse than the LG or even previous HP monitors unless under very specific circumstances.

The contrast and brightness isn't a problem but rather the color adjustments with the Custom RGB setting. The Spyder software didn't give any recommendations on that and I can't find anything on what is ideal for that. Also yes it's sRGB mode but should I be messing around with Adobe?

I'm a gold cross in COD4, 7th prestige in WaW, 4th prestige in MW2. The only reason I'm not 10th prestige in the latter two is because I hate the games in comparison to MW. For awhile I was ranked in the top 1000 in kills for MW2.I've logged over 23 days in MW. I got up to rank 46 in Halo 3...

Ok I have the Spyder 3 and started to mess around wig the calibration stuff. I'm wondering what setups I need to do in the OSD to maximize the performance of my display. Thanks.

You will care about the OSD when all the colors in your games are oversaturated due to the games ignoring the software calibration.

Never heard of that.

So there is no 30 inch that has little to no ips glow?

I've learned my new pet peeve. IPS glow for some reason just irritates the crap out of me and I know NEC stopped with the porarizer which helped. So who is still manufacturing monitors with the polarizers?

Get the M8 from Human Solution. Amazing customer service(best I've ever seen in any company) and a very solid product.

Have the R.A.T. and I like it so far, much more comfortable than my G9.

So I've been looking at the 80gb X-25M. I really don't want to go above $400 so would one of the Vortexs give more more space and be faster than the Intel?

What about ports for the SSD? I've used all my SATA ports on my motherboard.
