Pioneer PDP-4360HD 43-Inch PureVision Widescreen Plasma HDTV
Product Description
For maximum performance, Pioneerâs key technologies in optical glass and video processing are packed into this 43 inch flat-panel plasma. The result is a brighter, clearer, more beautiful picture than ever before, with increased black levels and more accurate colors. Plus, its advanced connectivity and convenience features make it a breeze to operate.The key benefits of the PDP-4360HD are arranged in three categories:A bright, clear, beautiful pictureAdvanced connectivity and convenienceExceptional soundA Bright, Clear, Beautiful PictureEvery time you turn it on, the PDP-4360HD will make you say âWOW.â Whether itâs your favorite DVD movie, a concert in high-definition, or the 5:00 news, this plasma is going to continually surprise you with its incredible picture. Itâs that good.Hereâs why its picture quality stands apart from the rest:Blacker blacks, with sharper detail in dark scenesWe want you to see ALL the details in a movie, even in the darkest scenes. So, we inserted a Crystal Emissive Layer between the plasma glass and the individual light cells. This is a big advance in plasma technology, allowing each cell to be charged and discharged three times faster than before, for greater light emission. So, blacks are blacker, yet the lighter areas on the screen still maintain their true brightness values and donât turn muddy or gray.Better detailAlso improving detail is our Advanced Continuous Emission (ACE) IV technology, which âsmooths outâ the visual steps between levels of color. With this enhancement, the panel can instantly identify the type of content shown on screen (fast vs. slow motion scenes, dark vs. light scenes, etc.) and dynamically adjust the grayscale to create optimum detail.Brilliant, lifelike colorsReducing reflected light is critical to producing accurate color values. In the PDP-4360HD we have eliminated one layer

Basically if you are after a 42" to 43" Flat Screen TV then the Pioneer is the choice for best picture. It gives a better picture than any rival manufacturer on either Plasma or LCD.The superb picture is a result of Pioneer's Purevision system.Exclusive to Pioneer, Purevision ensures that contrast is pin sharp, colours are clean and are not distorted, and black in particular is is beautifuly defined, with hues of incredible depth and clarity.The fuzziness of colours like black you would expect on other Flat Screen TVs is simply non existent.Watch a black and white film on this Plasma display and you will see what I mean.I have foregone the optional side speakers and have plugged mine into a 6.1 Home Cinema System. Therefore, I cannot give any opinion on the performance of these speakers.However, I would recommend a good HDMI DVD player to go with this Plasma Display. Look no further than the magnificent Denon 1920 DVD player which gives superb HDMI pictures, in conjunction with the Pioneer Plasma Screen.One drawback of the Pioneer Plasma Screen is that it will clearly show up not so great pictures at source eg VHS, old TV programmes, DVDs with poor picture transfer etc.A note for cleaning the screen and surround, invest in a Fibre Free cloth. Follow Pioneer's instructions re being able to use flannels or soft cloths and you will end up scratching these surfaces, in particular the gloss black surround. To repeat, the only cloth that will clean these surfaces safely is a Fibre Free cloth.If you do end up scratching the Gloss Surround though, an application of a DVD/CD Restorer such as Bib Polish will normally reduce such scratching by 90% to 95%.Screen burn is a hazard of Plasma TVs. Logos from News and Sports channels can remain afterwards! If you get screen burn, my advice is to select a channel without any logos immediately, and let it play for approximately 30 mins. I find that it does clear it.Nonetheless, this remains a magnificent Plasma Screen, and well worth the additional money over its rivals. That superb picture alone will quickly make you forget any extra cost.I have had my Pioneer Plasma Screen for 7 months now and am still absolutely delighted with it.I think you will feel the same way after purchasing one of these beauties.

This is a fantastic tv, although a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. Brilliant colours, quality sound, would look good in anyones living room. Unfortunately though i have come across a BIG problem, screen burning! after watching 90 minutes of football when the match had finished i was left with the sky one logo on the top left hand corner of my screen, among a few others. This is deeply frustrating as i think after paying so much money this shouldn`t happen. I am no expert on plasma tvs and had no idea this sort of thing could occur. This problem lets down a great tv. So please be aware when purchasing your new plasma

Although this is the most expensive plasma in its class (excluding the specialty producers), the picture rewards the buyer long after the extra grand is forgotten. Like a baby grand, even when not in use, the monitor's sharp styling and modern finish impress. In an ideal world, there would be one more component input on the rear of the receiver and the excellent speakers would be optional as most will insist on a 5.1 system for the full viewing experience. If the monitor is out of your price range, the Panasonic 42" is an excellent second choice and a no-brainer if you cannot exceed $3,000.00.
