In Reply to: Thinking of getting a Plasma TV posted by Ross on October 3, 2009 at 13:19:26:
I went from a Sony 34" CRT (second to last model IIRC) to a Pioneer Kuro PRO-101FD 50" plasma about a month ago, which pretty much all the reviews (Ultimate AV and AV Guide) say is the best, and am very happy with it. Sound and Vision magazine also highly rated a closely related 50" Kuro but I was told that was sold out earlier this year when I bought my plasma. The only review I have seen which rated another plasma higher in picture quality was in Consumer Reports, but a close reading of their review shows that they tested all sets using component video rather than HDMI inputs, which probably explains the discrepancy.
Because it has been discontinued, it's selling at a discount, but may be selling out soon so if you really want one you'd better hurry. CR also commented that the burn-in and reliability problems of plasmas seems to be a thing of the past. The LCD screens I have seen seem to make movies (DVD and BluRay) look like video whereas plasma seems to make it look more like a movie.
