(Select review language)Kuro PDP-508XDA By NELLO, Australia on 23/09/2012
Always wanted a Pioneer Kuro plasma tv, & even though the model I bought is around 4 years old, it still took my breath away!
Contrast is only second to the PDP-LX flaship model with 16000:1instead of 20000:1, but
nonetheless it is a joy to watch HD & blu ray movies.
The only tv I would replace this with is the PDP-LX608A which has 1920x1080 full HD.
The only negative is that I didn't buy one years ago, & it's a shame Pioneer stop making them.

Pioneer PDP-508XD Review
Quote: "The Black Level performance of the PDP-508XD is a revelation, with a purity that stands head and shoulders above offerings from any other Plasma or LCD manufacturer out there. The subtlety of graduation across dark scenes is nothing short of spectacular.
"
Pioneer's latest-generation plasmas really do take image quality to a whole new level
"It would be easy to dismiss Pioneer's hype over these new screens. But the reality is the brand really has reinvented plasma to a substantial degree. The set is darker, more dynamic than any previous Pioneer plasma and delivers a knock-out blow to comparably sized LCDs. It simply demands to be auditioned."
