Hey guys

I never used any calibrating system before and i really dont know what to get, i was thinking about the spyder3 pro but after reading a magazine looks like the Huey pro might be a better option, but some other reviews say otherwise, anyone that have any experience with this 2 devices could give me a help in my decision?

I want for 2 LCD monitors and 1 laptop by the way.

Cheers :P

I have the spider 3 and find it great… Use it on my Laptop plus 2 other lcd’s and the difference is noticeable.. I also leave the spider plugged in for the ambient lighty sensor thing to work..

It works very well for me..

I’d second the Gretag vote.

Have to agree with Simon and Paddy above. Gretag, I feel, have really concentrated on calibration over the years and seem to have a vast wealth of knowledge and research done on the subject.

I would have imagined from what I have seen to date that the Huey is an “entry level” standard device if you get my drift.
