I love my Kuro 50" too.
The Pioneer plasma is the Best plasma available.
With a calibration, from HDMI 1 to 4, day & night mode (if possible maked with a Minolta C200 "hardware") you have a very amazing pictures.
The LCD have with Sony new models 200hz. a good products...but Pioneer black is unique.
