Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Nothing is as powerful and emotional as film.

It’s the very reason why we’ve put more than ten years of design, research and development into building KURO: a flat screen television that will let you see and hear film like never before.

Our goal was straightforward: to build a screen that delivered the absolute best picture quality in the world. A screen that was true to how filmmakers intended their work to be seen. The result is KURO.

‘KURO’ means black in Japanese; this is relevant because our KURO screens have significantly deeper black levels than any other flat-screen TV on the market; some 80% deeper. The deepest black levels produce the purest colours, which reveal the sharpest details. This is KURO. The KURO screen gives you the ability to see literally every shade between black and white. Now, the film you see – and feel - on-screen is unparalleled in range and detail, the ultimate appearance of vivid and flawless colour.

The impact of what you see on KURO is unlike anything you have possibly seen before.

Features that make this KURO different from the other models in the range are:
Intelligent Brightness Control which intelligently controls on-screen brightness so that you get the best picture, regardless of the changing lighting conditions in your room
Integrated digital DVB-T tuner, with a CI Slot, which means that you don’t require an additional decoder box: everything is integrated in one body. This is ideal if you don’t want a ‘hardware’ invasion in your living room
USB host: turn your screen into a home media gallery. Simply connect your USB memory stick and enjoy your digital photo’s onscreen. It’s a good way to share your pictures in the best possible format
Subwoofer output: this KURO has high-grade audio parts: but if you want to boost lower frequencies, it has direct sub out, with no need for an additional amplifier.
ISF calibration ready: The ISF C3 (or Custom Calibration Configuration) feature allows your screen to be optimised for your viewing environment. As an optional service, a trained professional can precisely calibrate your plasma panel with customised levels of contrast, tint, colour level and other parameters.
Multi-screen options: this KURO allows for picture in picture and split screen views; particularly useful if you want to keep an eye on a sports game whilst watching a DVD, for example.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent, 25 Mar 2008
ive had this tv now for 6 months, and it still stunns me! utter class.. if your after the best big tv this is it.. unless u want its big bro the lx version.. hd pictures are top class, motion in 1080p/24hz is best you will see no jerkyness.. in my oppinion motion is vital.. don't buy on 1080p alone, marginal improvement. kuro is the best. buy without doubt.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time considering anything else but a Pioneer, 7 Jun 2009
By BadgerBeard (Midlands, UK) - See all my reviews
Look, I'll be very blunt about this. You only live one life, and you deserve the best. So do whatever it takes to get the finances together and get a Pioneer 50" plasma. Don't settle for anything less and then regret it afterwards. After a year the 508XD still blows me away. And that's just with the magnificent freeview picture. It really does kick the competition into touch. Actually, that's a lie. There *is* no competition.
