DO WANT
Joe Maki @ Jan 6th 2008 1:46PM
Absolute black - cool! how do they keep the man made blackholes from leaking out with the plasma :)
Kevin M. @ Jan 6th 2008 2:22PM
9 mm? That's thinner than the iPhone!
GhostDoggy @ Jan 6th 2008 2:33PM
Contrast ratios are so over the top in marketing it should be referred to as the Lie Ratio.
Doc @ Jan 6th 2008 2:43PM
Hello TV of my dreams, but do they even have cameras that film in that high of a quality??
Andy Sullivan @ Jan 6th 2008 3:07PM
Absolute black. Is that like absolute zero?
MDC @ Jan 6th 2008 11:40PM
We won't find out till we see it ourselfs, but I think it's good enough to trust the info.
longhairbilly @ Jan 6th 2008 4:06PM
Sweet!! I hope I have enough money saved when this baby comes out. I just dropped five grand on the Kuro Elite in October. I though it was the best TV I have laid my eyes on. Now I realize it's just a fat bastard.
Nuvanda @ Jan 6th 2008 8:09PM
Er.. no speakers?
AVGuy @ Jan 7th 2008 1:48AM
Do you really want speakers messing this baby up. All pro line displays are speakerless. With a display that nice you'd better have a decent surround setup.
gus @ Jan 6th 2008 11:04PM
is this the same picture quality as the current kuro line up ? or an inprovement? it state higher contras ratio so one can assume better tv then current 8g kuro line up ?
MDC @ Jan 6th 2008 11:42PM
It's very thin but I think Sony will burn this one with their OLED screen, shows near absolute black, much better than the LCD screen nowadays, and it's 3 times thinner...
AVGuy @ Jan 7th 2008 1:49AM
I love Pioneer. Really, love. Don't tell my wife.
Anthony @ Jan 7th 2008 8:17AM
Get me a towel. I want one. Cheers
peyote @ Jan 7th 2008 4:31PM
