Limited Edition: Beige Grisé 50-inch ‘HD Ready 1080p’ KURO (Separate Media Receiver)
KRP-500ABG
Exclusivity. In a dimension all of its own.
For centuries, artists have mixed colours to create nuances that express great beauty and intense emotion. The Beige Grisé frame of the KRP-500 ABG combines warmth and refinement in perfect balance. Part of a limited edition of just 1,000 across Europe, it not only has great aesthetic appeal in and of itself, the shade also harmonises elegantly with a wide spectrum of interior designs.
Rich and distinctive, but never distracting, the KRP-500ABG frame is set off by the depth and intensity of the images on the KURO flat screen. The KURO, which draws its name from the Japanese word for black, is based on the concept that a screen that generates the deepest of blacks can bring every detail and colour vibrantly and brilliantly to life like never before.
Just 64mm thin (about the width of 3 fingers) and with a separate media receiver, the KRP-500ABG bears the established hallmarks of a true KURO: exhilarating performance, breathtaking picture quality and unsurpassed technical mastery.
Wherever you install your KURO or whatever you plan to watch, you can be sure of perfect picture quality. The KRP-500ABG gives a wide selection of picture customisation options, so you can fine-tune the picture to exactly match your taste.
With its Enhanced Optimum Mode, the KRP-500ABG actively senses the light conditions and analyses the viewing content, ensuring that the picture you see is as perfect as it can be. In addition, the audio can be harmonised with the programme being watched. The KRP-500ABG comes with an extra colour sensor that measures the colour characteristics of ambient light to provide the picture optimum to your eye’s sensation.
The KRP-500ABG delivers flicker-free images in razor-sharp 1080p resolution. View films coming from Blu-ray in the original 24 frames per second – precisely the same rate at which they were originally filmed and mastered. What you see (and hear) is true to the original.
The KRP-500 ABG is equipped with an integrated analogue tuner, DVB-T tuner for digital terrestrial TV reception and a DVB-S/DVB-S2 tuner for receiving satellite signals. Additionally, the KRP-500 ABG is compliant with the EICTA ‘ HDTV 1080p Minimum Requirements’ and supports MPEG-4 high definition decoding.
The KRP-500ABG has 4 HDMI inputs that enable a quick and convenient connection to a broad range of source devices. Equipped for easy integration into your home network, the KRP-500ABG features a DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) certified Home Media Gallery, enabling you to enjoy compressed audio files, photos and even high definition content from one or more connected media servers.
With KURO LINK and an intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) easy operation is virtually guaranteed. KURO LINK allows you to access the main functions of all your compatible Pioneer equipment with a single remote control.
* Express your individuality: this KURO is also available in brilliant White or in our trademark piano black.
