Trade-ins must be postmarked no later than September 30, 2010 to be eligible. 

For complete details and instructions see the HDfury3 trade-in program thread in our forum.

Reviews/Testimonials

"Between the HDfury3 and HDfury2, the HDfury3 is MUCH better in every category and as a result the HDfury3 has a better image." - Craig Rounds, official HDfury3 tester, professional calibrator (www.cir-engineering.com)

"Mine was delivered this morning pretty much as advertised. I was essentially looking for a "seamless" transition in performance from my HDfury2 and that is what I got. So far, so good. The inclusion of the little screwdriver to adjust any of the tiny dip switches was a nice touch. " - Ron W (Canada)

"Just finished installing and I'm quite impressed. I have an older Dwin CRT projector that must be forced negative sync. I was having to use a BUF2000 for that purpose and now I am able eliminate that device due to the HDFury3's set up options. I am outputting RGB and my picture was shifted slightly right but with two or three pushes of the shift button it shifted right into place. I'm using this with the DVDO Edge and the combination is truly stunning. I'm outputting at 720p. What is truly remarkable are the blacks. I've always thought my blacks were pretty darn good and that my greyscale was set up right but I cannot believe how much better they look now. With the trade in deal I know I made the right decision to upgrade and I'm extremely happy with my new toy." - Tim

"It works fine and I am happy with the performance. This is the best HDfury so far…You were right… I would never hesitate to be the first one to buy any of your future products." - Michel

"The HDfury3 landed on Saturday morning! Worked like a charm from the word go, no issues whatsoever. PS3 on one end and a 1080i Sony 53" projection TV at the other. HDfury3 connected to PS3 with a HDMI 1.3 cable. Wonderful picture quality, a delight to watch." - Dep

"Received my HDfury 3 in the UK today. Using latest Amstrad (250GB) Sky HD box. Output set to 1080i. TV is Panasonic plasma TH-37PE50B using component input. HDfury 3 works straight out of the box. I set it up in about 5 minutes. You wouldn't even know it was there if it was not for the nice blue LED! Brightness and colour exactly the same as "normal" TV no adjustments needed. No switching lag at all when changing Sky channels. Audio 3.5 mm to twin phono socket on TV from HDFury3 used. Works fine. I can now watch programmes in HD! Overall it performs just like I hoped that it would. Thanks guys you have saved me lots of money on a new TV." - Foghorn (UK)

"Awesome! I'm impressed with the quick delivery and the build quality of the HDfury3 and worked straight of the box. My Sony EH36 now gets a 1080i/50 input signal. Fantastic! Saves me thousands $$$ on updating to a new TV with HDMI inputs. The color and clarity are more noticeable than my LCD HD ready TV at 720p. Once again thank you and are certainly recommending this to my friends." - Mobile Guy (New Zealand)

ChromaPure v1.3.1 now available for download
July 21, 2010

ChromaPure v1.3.1 is now available for immediate download for existing customers. This release offers a few bug fixes identified in 1.3.

Customers still using 1.2.1 who want to upgrade should email user support for an updated license file (it's free).

What's new in 1.3.1?

  • The meter mode drop-down incorrectly displayed Generic LCD as the default choice when CRT was the actual default. This has been fixed.
  • The DTP-94 meter used fL when cd/m2 was selected as the default luminance.
  • The Pre and Post-Calibration Greyscale modules displayed greyed-out selections until activated by auto-advance. This prevented the user from selecting any desired level until all readings had been taken. The greyscale levels are no longer initially greyed out.

ChromaPure is new, very easy to use, home theater video calibration software that is garnering a lot of industry attention. We're proud to offer it to our readers at special CurtPalme.com discounted prices!

New VIM-FULLHD v3 HDMI card for Marquee projectors
July 21, 2010

Moome's just announced that he's now shipping the new version 3 of his popular VIM-FULLHD HDMI input card for Electrohome Marquee projectors and clones (Madrigal, Vidikron, etc).

What's new in Version 3?

The new version 3 board adds the following new features:

Marquee switcher support: You can now use the card in a Marquee switch box instead of directly in the projector. Older cards did not work in Marquee switchers. (Refer to the v3 manual for the special DIP switch settings).

DTS-HD / Dolby True HD lossless audio support: Allows you to use an HDMI receiver or pre-amp between your Blu-ray player and projector to decode lossless audio. Previously this did not work correctly. The EDID has now been updated so this will work.

Cleaner video power: A large coil filter has been added to clean up the video power, further reducing image noise on screen.

Manual selection of input color mode: The previous card auto-detected the colour space. While this typically works correctly, some users like to be able to force the colour space mode. This is now possible using 4 new buttons on the remote:

Button 4: Auto Detect Input Colour Space
Button 5: Set Input Color Space at YCbCr 422
Button 6: Set Input Color Space at YCbCr 444
Button 7: Set Input Color Space at RGB 444

Remote control beep confirmation: In the past it was difficult to know if the card is receiving the signals when you press buttons on the remote. The card now 'beeps' every time you press a button to give you positive feedback.

Moome's EXT-FULLHD v2 converter now only $240 USD!
July 15, 2010

Moome has temporarily dropped the price on his EXT-FULLHD v2 HDMI to RGB converter to help liquidate old stock. What used to be $335 not that long ago is now down to only $240 USD!

This price is only good for the remaining 15 units that are left from the current batch. After that the price goes up.

This newest version of the EXT-FULLHD includes 2 HDMI 1.3 inputs and many improvements over the original design:

  • Gamma: Improved Gamma for a more linear greyscale
  • Sharpness: Sharper image than previous versions
  • Picture purity: Cleaner/Less noise
  • Range expansion: Now supports 0-255 RGB level support for higher dynamic range (in addition to 16-235)
  • Stability: ESD enhanced to prevent electrostatic discharge
  • Horizontal shift: 50 preset memories (the original EXT-FULLHD only had 1 memory)

Reviews/Testimonials:

"[The EXT-FULLHD v2] came this afternoon. A few minutes hooking it up, another few minutes with the manual adjusting the picture centering and black boost, and I'm golden. The picture is gorgeous, and looks crisper than that from my EXT-HD. Man, this thing is WAY smaller than the EXT-HD. Thanks, Moome! And thanks to those that worked with you to improve your design." - Rolls-Royce

ChromaPure calibration software and new PRO meters!
June 25, 2010

We've worked out an exclusive deal for our members to bring you ChromaPure calibration software & meter packages at prices lower than anywhere else on the internet! Buy direct from our ChromaPure partner at prices lower than buying off their own website! Same product, same support, just more money in your pocket at the end of the day.

Confused about meters?  See our FAQ: Which meter is right for me?

ChromaPure
is new, very easy to use, home theater video calibration software that is garnering a lot of industry attention. We're proud to now offer it to our readers at special CurtPalme.com discounted prices!

ChromaPure was designed by experienced professional calibrator Tom Huffman whom we've known for many years now. Our very own free Greyscale & Colour Calibration for Dummies guide was originally designed around Tom's easy to follow workflow process so anyone familiar with our guide should feel right at home using ChromaPure.

ChromaPure offers an inexpensive way to adjust your high-quality television or home theater display to achieve the high performance that it is capable of. All you need is a computer and the willingness to learn a little about what is necessary for achieving excellent video performance that meets industry standards. The software is available for instant download and bundles with popular colour analyzers are available with shipping at a modest $10 USD flat rate ($40 international).

It doesn't matter if you're new to calibration or a seasoned professional, ChromaPure provides all the features you need at one low price!

Introducing the new Display 2 PRO, DTP-94 PRO, and Chroma 5 PRO!

It's a known fact that colorimeters can give erroneous results when measuring various display types, including LCDs. The errors aren't huge, but most people don't go to the trouble of calibrating their displays just to get them "close enough".  So we're introducing special "PRO" versions of the popular Display 2, DTP-94, and Chroma 5 colorimeters.

These PRO units are all individually hand tested and calibrated against a reference 5nm spectroradiometer on multiple display types. Offset tables are then created for use in ChromaPure to ensure that you get as accurate results as possible. This also compensates for any drift that may have occurred over time, essentially recalibrating your meter to better than new! We always recommend recalibration instead of buying a new meter, not only because it costs less, but because it also keeps more stuff out of landfills!

For complete details see:

These meters are available for purchase and we can also recalibrate existing meters* to this same level of enhanced accuracy. We even pay for return shipping!

*Not all Chroma 5's may be upgraded/recalibrated. See our Chroma 5 page for details.


New Colour Science Articles

We've also introducing a series of Colour Science articles. There are quite a few but the following two are definite must-reads for anyone looking at purchasing a meter or doing their own calibration:

For the complete list of articles, see here. Note that some of these articles are quite technical! The good news is that you don't need to understand the intricacies of the science behind calibration to perform an actual calibration!

Reviews/Testimonials

"ChromaPure is an excellent calibration program that is well worth the very reasonable purchase price. The software is easy to use, well thought out and is very stable. The CMS support is a standout feature that is not available in competing products and by itself is worth the price of the software. After using the program, I’ve decided to use ChromaPure for all of my display calibration needs." - Mark Petersen of VideoVantage.com

"... very easy to get going and get fantastic results in a single evening, with no steep learning curve. I really loved using ChromaPure. It was simple, powerful, and fast. If I was starting with nothing, and wanted to calibrate my own displays, I would purchase the i1 Display 2 with ChromaPure package, as it's an easy way to get started and get great results if your display gives you access to a full CMS." - Chris Heinonen and Mark Vignola of HomeTheaterHiFi.com

"For the home user like me, I don't want to spend hours trying to sort through the interface. I want to spend that time on the actual calibration. If its software you use only a few times a year, I think it is important that it be very intuitive and user-friendly... and I guess that is the main reason I like the looks of Tom's solution. ... I think most home users will find ChromaPure's easy-to-navigate interface a real advantage." - Stash64

"I have just received my copy of ChromaPure and it simply can do everything I want or need to easily and completely do an accurate run. My opinion is from beginner to long time pro, ChromaPure is now at the top of my list for calibration software whether it is expensive or free." - JimmyR

"Chromapure is professional grade calibration software that is easier for the novice (me) to use than HCFR. Its lay out is terrific. Being able to view gamma response in real time is brilliant. The bottom line is I'm very happy with the purchase. All I can say is WELL DONE TOM!" - Geof

"I am fairly novice at calibration, but the layout of the software and the implementation of each step really make it easy to use as well as informative." - Kadeeu

"ChromaPure is so easy to use and has a simple learning curve. Many years with HCFR have educated me to the ins and outs of video calibration and Tom's guide is a real help. The ChromaPure help is also very good. In my opinion ChromaPure is well worth the investment." - catmother

"I must say that this software rocks and is very easy to use. I was able to calibrate my RS20 to perfection. I have the EyeOne Pro/Display 2 combo. The videos on the website are very good to start you and Tom is very helpful and fast to answer questions. I have no problem recommending it." - B. Gosselin

"ChromaPure is designed with the home user in mind and I believe does a better job of stepping the beginner through the whole process and in the correct order." - Sean

"ChromaPure is a DELIGHT to use!  ... even my first attempt has produced a more striking pic, more depth, and rich natural colors." - Millerwill

"I bought the Chroma 5 Pro from Tom and am extremely happy with the results. IMHO having customized built in offsets particular to your individual meter to improve accuracy is a no brainer. And the way that Tom integrates the offsets into the license file available in a drop down when you initialize the meter makes usage easy as pie... :)" - Bob Sorel
