Pioneer PDP-6020FD Review by hometheatermag

[Turbe]

Conclusions
The Pioneer KURO PDP-6020FD excels in far more than just blacks. But I can’t overstate the importance of rich blacks, particularly if you are a movie fan. I never once wished for deeper blacks or better shadow detail.

Yet, I do wish that the set’s color temperature were more accurate. And I don’t like to see any manufacturer eliminate the ability to correct color-temperature deviations. I particularly don’t like to see Pioneer do it, since its sets are arguably the best on the market. For that reason, my recommendation here is less enthusiastic than it might have been otherwise.

But unless another manufacturer springs an unexpected surprise, Pioneer’s ninth-generation plasmas will be the sets to beat this year.

Thanks for the post Shawn.

My feeling about the settings were similar to the reviewer. Pioneer could have kept the difference in adjustability between the Non-Elite and Elite without removing color tempature options which have become pretty common on hdtv's these days.

I also think a NR on/off and perhaps a gamma setting option would have kept the Non-Elite clearly ahead of it's competition while still leaving plenty of advantages for the Elite in adjustability.
