- Superb Viewing
Replaced my 3 year old Sony XBR1 40" LCD with a Pioneer KURO 5020FD in February 2009. The Sony was a great set & my 1st HDTV, but as it was 720P and I wanted a full 1080P Panel, I decided hit the reviews.
After reading many professional reviews and ownwer opinions, I decided on a Samsung 850 46" LCD. Picture quality was/is my 1st and foremost concern, and while the Samsung was excellent in many ways, it just did not have the 'Natural' look I was hoping for and off angle viewing was not good. ...

Rating: - still evaluating... but great so far
i bought this direct from pioneer because that's the best price you can find.
my first comment applies to the plasma vs. lcd....
if you have young toddlers or cats and/or dogs, you HAVE to go plasma. plasma tvs have a glass screen while LCD haves a soft screen which 3 years olds and cats are drawn to!
also, plasma from my tests has a more realistic picture.
i'm very pleased with the lower speaker that comes with this. as i live in a small apt. i ... Read More
Rating: - Perhaps The Best Plasma Ever!!What a TV!!!
"Just received this TV recently and all I can say is OMG, where you have been my whole life? I realize anyone who is reading these reviews already are fully aware of the KURO reputation. It truly does not disappoint!! I have been keeping my eye on this one for a while now. The price was the major drawback to not having purchased this set in the past. At least for me, spending over $4K on a Plasma was a little out of my price range. It has now dropped in price over 50% as a result of Pioneer getting ... Read More

Stay away from this tv.It's a waste of money.I am not a so called videofile unlike these other nerds who write these long evaluations using jargon that make us layman feel idiotic.I do know a little about tvs after doing research on what to look for like ressolution and frequency. If you look at reviews from other tvs, they all get the same good evaluations from amazon. Even the LG looked good.I made the mistake of buying this television due to pioneer's reputation.When it was set up, and ... Read More
Rating: - Amazing! Best purchase ever.
I must state up front that my previous television was a 19" 23 year old Sony (mono) which still runs great, but wasn't doing much for my MNF parties. WOW is all I can say. I have Dish Network HD and the picture is absolutely gorgeous. I made the mistake of plugging in the XBOX 360 and now I'm having TVgasms everyday. The picture is that good. The blacks are ohh so black and in movie mode the colors are darn near perfect. Some of the other settings such as "dynamic" and "performace" I find the colors ... Read More
