Plasma Wins!
By S. Johnson
For each LCD bigot who wants to flame this review, remove your hands from the keyboard and take an aspirin. If you're deciding on which technology to buy, skip the technology, get to the stores, and decide by 1) the picture and 2) what you want your TV to do. If you feel a true HD signal is critical, don't buy a 1024x768 Pioneer TV. Find a TV that will support a minimum of 1280x780. If you simply want a great-looking TV with a great picture that your family will use as the living room workhorse and you want to spend the money, strongly consider this Pioneer.Caveat: I consider myself a technically-adept person who enjoys hooking up electronics. Rarely has stereo, TV, or other device directions confused, confounded, or otherwise stymied my eventual setup success.Plasma wins in our household. This television has fantastic picture, a very good and relatively easy-to-program remote, and a fine set of speakers that produce crisp, but not full, sound. Hooking up our DVD player was simple, and progressive scan DVD looks tremendous. Out of the box picture color seemed very red, but changes are easily accessible via the good remote and menu system. (For great directions on how to change contrast, saturation and other items, CNET.com has a fantastic step-by-step guide at http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-6463_7-5085739-1.html.) More difficult has been to get the remote to recognize and substitute for our ScientificAtlanta cablebox/DVR. There are only 4 inputs (1 under the front panel) on the receiver box, a limitation if you're heavily invested in audio/visual equipment.Be aware that the shipping box weighs 174 pounds, with six boxes inside. Setup is not difficult with a modicum of patience; for example, figuring out which mounting brackets to use based on the speakers that come with the TV is buried in multiple step directions.This is a fine television. It looks beautiful as any fine furniture would, and it functions exactly as we need it to. Picture is very good, and the remote is backlit and nicely laid out. Now, prepare yourself for seeing a lot of standard TV get s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d until you learn about the Screen Size button on the remote...
