Christmas Wish List: HDTV choices

November 22nd, 2008 joel

We don’t have to just dream about a White Christmas around here, but we are dreaming about purchasing the best HDTV for our living rooms.

A new flat-screen was the most desired gadget purchase for P&T readers when we asked that question a few weeks ago, and I’ve got a few to take a look at.

First, let’s shoot for the moon with what CNET’s editors consider is the best plasma TV out there bar none: the Pioneer PRO111 / PRO-111FD / PRO-111FD Elite KURO 50 HD 1080P Plasma TV.

This 50-inch monster simply has the deepest black levels that CNET has ever seen, vivid and correct color, and plenty of connections for all of your HD sources (don’t bother plugging in a VCR to this bad boy). The picture quality is unmatched in large-screen HDTV’s.

Ok, how much you ask…are you sitting down? $4,499 through Amazon for the PRO-111FD Elite KURO 50 HD 1080P Plasma TV.
