Same?
Apr 24, 2017 3:39PM PDT

Mine is a 58" would this set of instructions for the 60" be roughly the same. Older model, didn't want to spend money on calibration. Thanks

Different model actually

You got the model slightly wrong. It's a PN58A550. Disregard what I linked since it a much newer model that provides different PQ.

In any case, understand- all sources/systems/channels/feeds can behave differently and require additional tweaks. Use these only as a very rough guide to adjust your settings.

I do however recommend a professional calibration, especially for older rigs. Since you got it on the cheap, makes it more affordable and will add to your future enjoyment.
