Audio Video Revolution Forum - View Single Post - Pioneer Plasma Display: PDP-5080HD or PDP-5010FD

jmgoldsmith · 03-16-2008

I'm planning to purchase a 50-inch plasma display for my home theater, and I've narrowed my choices to one of two Pioneer models - the PDP-5080HD or the PDP-5010FD. From what I can tell, the only meaningful difference between the two models is the maximum supported resolution - 1365 x 768 (PDP-5080HD) vs. 1920 x 1080 (PDP-5010FD). I can get good deals on both models, but the PDP-5010FD will still be $1,400 more than the PDP-5080HD. Is the PDP-5010FD worth the extra money? Please advise...
