Pioneers new 8th Generation Panels are the very
reason Pioneer have put more than ten years of design, research and
development into building KURO: a flat screen television that will let you see
and hear film like never before.
Pioneer's goal was straightforward: to build a
screen that delivered the absolute best picture quality in the world. A screen
that was true to how filmmakers intended their work to be seen. The result is
KURO.
‘KURO’ means black in Japanese; this is relevant
because our KURO screens have significantly deeper black levels than any other
flat-screen TV on the market; some 80% deeper.
The deepest black levels produce the purest colours,
which reveal the sharpest details. This is KURO.
The KURO screen gives you the ability to see
literally every shade between black and white. Now, the film you see – and
feel - on-screen is unparalleled in range and detail, the ultimate appearance
of vivid and flawless colour.
The impact of what you see on KURO is unlike anything
you have possibly seen before.
Features that make this KURO different from the other
models in the range are:
Intelligent Brightness Control which intelligently
controls on-screen brightness so that you get the best picture, regardless of
the changing lighting conditions in your room
Integrated digital DVB-T tuner, with a CI Slot, which
means that you don’t require an additional decoder box: everything is
integrated in one body. This is ideal if you don’t want a ‘hardware’ invasion
in your living room
USB host: turn your screen into a home media gallery.
Simply connect your USB memory stick and enjoy your digital photo’s onscreen.
It’s a good way to share your pictures in the best possible format
Subwoofer output: this KURO has high-grade audio
parts: but if you want to boost lower frequencies, it has direct sub out, with
no need for an additional amplifier.
ISF calibration ready: The ISF C3 (or Custom
Calibration Configuration) feature allows your screen to be optimised for your
viewing environment. As an optional service, a trained professional can
precisely calibrate your plasma panel with customised levels of contrast,
tint, colour level and other parameters.
Multi-screen options: this KURO allows for picture in
picture and split screen views; particularly useful if you want to keep an eye
on a sports game whilst watching a DVD, for example.
