top of the line, unbelievable.
I purchased this TV 2 months ago (9/2008) from a local store. This TV is hands down the best TV on the market! 5 stars. I haven't found a single thing that I don't like about it.
It is hard to put into words how much better this TV was compared to every other TV in the store. The picture is bright and crisp. Hands down had the best picture in the store... Why? Bright Colors and a million shades of black.
There are so many more shades of grey and black that you'll see...

Hands down the best TV out there right now!
The Pro-111FD Kuro ('black') certainly lives up to its name. It produces jaw-dropping, deep blacks that make its true-to-life colors look all the more beautiful and stunning. The wide range of user-selectable as well as automatic features that protect it from 'burn-in', largely eliminated this as a concern for me about buying a plasma TV. The Energy Save feature of this TV also reduces the long-standing concern over the cost of operating a plasma TV.
The picture is as bright as it is ...

All HDTVS will be measured to this mighty Pioneer KURO!
I purchased the Pioneer Pro 111-FD a little over a week ago and I absolutely love it. I am pretty familiar with HDTVs since I purchased my first 1080p TV in October of 2006. I am upgrading from a SONY 46 inch XBR3 LCD which I also loved. The colors on that TV would just pop out and the sound was great as well. There were a few things about that TV (and many others on the market today) that I could just not get past and that was the black level. My old SONY LCD was top of the line and had better ...

By far, the best television you can buy, with excellent lifelike color and clarity.
It is easy to find detailed reviews of the Pioneer Elite PRO-111FD on the internet. However, nothing beats a careful comparison in an high-quality electronics store of this set with ostensibly comparable models from other manufacturers. In particular, go to an electronics store where you can spend time watching some of the programs that you normally watch. If you like sports, watch some golf, baseball or something shot outdoors to see how realistic the color of the grass is on the 111FD compa...

Lots of money for a bad clock
OK, the image is fantastic. Lots of imputs, lots of settings available and good sound.
However some have some minor problems that shouldn't exist at the price of these beasts. Mine has the following problems:
1. The clock is one hour out for the time zone and there is no way to adjust the time.
2. The DST time function doesn't change the time. Even over a weekend.
3. When watching standard definition images the bars on the side of the image are almost white when the man...

Awesome TV
Have had this TV for a few weeks now. I researched the entire Samsung LCD and Plasma line, looked at the XBRs from Sony and some of the higher end Panasonic plasmas.
I used 12 criteria to evaluate each of the 16 TVs I looked at.
Kuro Elite was best in class in every category except for vibrancy and SD picture blur reduction. LCDs are clearly more vibrant. If you are looking for a picture that immediately jumps out at you and demands your attention, you're unlikely to find ...

Best TV I have ever seen!
The picture is amazing! I was blown away with the pictures quality. My Sony Bravia XBR was one of the best when I bought that 2 years ago. This Pioneer makes the Sony look very average. I have read alot of articles naming this tv one of the best on the market and from what I have seen there is alot backing it up.
The picture looks great straight out of the box. No picture or color adjustment required like some of my past TVs. The TV is also surprising slim for such a big set.

My thoughts
The pro-111fd makes such an awesome PC monitor. way better then the Samsung plasma 650. The Samsung did not overscan though. The Samsung was top rated by consumer reports. geesh- its not even in the same league!!
After I saw the elite, the Samsung went right back to Amazon. Amazon took the Samsung back, and refunded my money, in full, including shipping both ways. Amazon gets 5 very solid stars.
The Pioneer seems to run cooler than the Samsung-even with the power save function t...

Best TV available still
I recently upgraded from a Samsung 61" LED DLP which wasn't too shabby. I spent a good 3 or 4 months crawling around various electronic stores in Manhattan comparing models and was finally able to hunt down a Pioneer Elite Kuro PRO-111FD at an insanely low price ($2499). I've spent a little over a week with the TV and have to say that it really lives up to all the lofty praise it has received over the past year. The blacks, in a single word, are stunning and the colors are equally impressive....
