Panny G20 Out of the box calibration

[dc6]

I am looking for some tips on a quick out of the box setup calibration on my G20.The picture looks great but I am wondering what other panny users do to the default setting. I am going to a Spears setup later when I have the time to do it as company over this week.

Just start with thx mode, and if you are not going to run a break in dvd, just wait about 100-150 hours before you calibrate

Here's a search result. However, even bandphan will tell you that the room itself varies, ambient lighting varies, and there is even variation from unit to unit.
