You already have an Xrite how much more accuracy are you looking for, thats a pretty good instrument. They are all somewhat expensive but you get what you pay for

The true and accurate way to measure TVI (Dot Gain) is by knowing what the dot on the plate is first.

From there, you can measure your screen tints on the color bar to really know where you're at.

Hope this helps!

Techkon instrument are great!

They have a simple 'density meter': Color-Densitometer - TECHKON - We measure color and more...
Or if you need more advanced stuff: Spectro-Densitometer - TECHKON - We measure color and more...
