Advantages: Great sound quality and picture quality for video gaming Disadvantages: Bad looking remote
...Took my time choosing what plasma to buy, I believe anything above 32' should be a plasma and I''m glad I paid the extra an got this Pioneer, OK it didn''t come with a stand as the 4270XD but you get picture in picture and two hdmi i/p. Build Quality is excellent, Picture quality excellent on DVD (will look for a upscaler dvd 1080i), Xbox360 1080i looks fantastic, standard TV and sky (haven''t upgraded) good enough as this is a HD TV rightfully, Can support 1080p but believe only 24Hz blue ray dics format.I have read that people don''t like the remote I can''t see why it matches the TV with the same look and is metal not cheap plastic also you can programme it for your sky boxes, dvd/dvr, and vcr with all manufacturer codes supplied so three extra devices can be easily added....

...I did a whole lot of research into the meaning of HD, resolution differences, contrast ratio etc. After doing a thorough check on everything that was on offer from manufacturers we decided the Pioneer PDP-LX5080D looked by far the best. We bought the TV in February of this year and can only say it has been money very very very well spent.
We have it wall mounted and the Kuro picture quality is second to none. Everything about this flat screen plasma TV is fabulous. Just be careful when buying as ours did not come with speakers (although they were offered for sale seperately), we did not want speakers and hooked ours up to the home cinema system.
Goodbye, from two very happy Pioneer customers....

Advantages: Great quality, lots of useful features Disadvantages: Takes a lot of time to work out how to use!
...This is a great product, but only if you take the time to work out how to use all the features and link them together. However, my wife who has never had any problems with technology cannot fathom it, and has to ask me to carry out any recording functions.
That having been said the playback, recording and sound quality are all very good - especially through HDMI cable.
The player has a few tricks up its sleeve in that it can store pictures from a digital camera and has a jukebox to store music from MP3 players.
The in-built TV guide is exceptional. You can list your preferences and the guide will then automatically show recommended programmes for viewing and recording. Also films and sport are shown in different colours so are easy to pick out.
The remote link function is also handy. It means the DVR can be hidden from view...

Having a few problems with this drive.
It doesn't want to burn my Kodak 16x -R media at more than 12x... and it keeps failing when burning the DVD unless I drop the speed. It seems to burn OK at 4x, 6x and 8x. Funny thing is that it does consistently... more
