Default I thought I understood but now I am confused.... Pioneer displays.

OK.

I have been looking for a new tv. 42" isn't cutting it so I think I want a 60"(even though it might be a bit big for my room)...

Anyways... I think I want a Pioneer and I thought I understood I wanted a 151FD but now I notice 600M or something like that.

What are all these numbers?

Which is the BEST Plasma from Pioneer in the 50" and 60" sizes?

I know Sonny will chime in soon, but I'll take a shot at it.

101/141 (50"/60") Signature series is the best (and most expensive)
111/151 Elite series
5020/6020 Non-Elite series

KRP-500M/600m are limited productions series that are a mix of the Signature series and the non-elite series. They fall somewhere between the Signatures and the Non-Elites, depending on who you talk to.

That covers it for the most part.

Are you enjoying the KRP-500M?!?!?!?!?!

Yes. It's very nice. I'm still tweaking some settings to deal with some room light in the day/evening.

That's great.

It's too bad they aren't making these anymore.

That's great guys.

I guess when I said "Best", I meant the one that is considered to be "the one to have".

I think the 600M seems to fit my needs. I don't want a TUNER or stand.

Take a look at my system and the tuner I chose. May save you some research time (HT gallery link)

Best is relative aint it? Mags have stated that the 111FD [50" Elite Kuro] is the best hands down. But you cant go wrong with its 60" counterpart. The 151FD is a tv while the 600M is a monitor. In a nutshell the KRPs dont come with tuners, stands or speakers. But are cheaper than the Elites.
