Again, consider displays: Similar to music, movies are mastered on high-end gear. Staff use properly-calibrated displays. They often view scenes in dark rooms. Similar to music, movies are mastered so that they won&#x27;t look terrible on the audience&#x27;s displays. Some dark scenes are made a little more contrast-y. Some colors are tweaked. Maybe even the white balance is altered (though this is often more stylistic than corrective).<p>Now if you&#x27;re buying a display, are you going to ignore measurements and just go with whatever looks good to you? Hopefully not. Even if you prefer bluer tones or higher contrast, you&#x27;ll want to know numbers for white point, color accuracy, and contrast ratio. You won&#x27;t just eyeball it in a store. You definitely wouldn&#x27;t trust subjective reviews where someone says, &quot;This display seems more contrast-y and blue.&quot; It shouldn&#x27;t be any different with audio gear.
