what model is the Pioneer you saw, and where?

...you can get the Pioneer 6020 much cheaper than 5,000

The main difference is that the Elite has more adjustment controls (color temp, gamma... etc).

Why not think XBR?

According to many experts, plasma has better picture than LCD. Here's an example: http://reviews.cnet.com/flat-panel-t...?tag=mncol;lst

When I look at Plasma I feel the P could be brighter.
Also those annoying reflections of ambient light.
But the Kuro/Elite is a different matter, I suppose . . .

The world seems to agree there's none better.
The Critics. The Mavens. The Fanboys. The Owners.

Whose to say?

What XBR would he get for 60 inches my friend? The XBR7 or XBR8 to get the same performance of a pioneer.

C|Net: Pioneer Kuro PDP-6020FD vs Sony KDL-55XBR8
"But as good as the Sony KDL-55XBR8 is, it still couldn't knock out the champion of the superheavyweight plasma division, Pioneer Kuro PDP-6020FD which still reigns supreme as the best HDTV overall and it costs much less, even at 60 inches, than the 55-inch KDL-55XBR8."

"The Sony 55XBR8 delivers picture quality that's nearly as good as the Pioneer... ...we still give the overall black-level performance nod to the Pioneer... ...the Sony's shadow detail was also superb, nearly as good as the Pioneer" (C|Net October 2008)

It's $5,477 right now.
What price have you seen it for?

[blu_world]

Shucks, if it was under $4,000 I'd have to pull the trigger.
