Pioneer PDP-C509A

The Pioneer PDPC509A is the last of the mighty Kuros, and features a 1080p resolution, three HDMI ports and enhanced contrast in bright environments.

LG 42PQ60D

The LG 42PQ60D is a budget plasma that also performs like one. While design and picture quality are mostly good, we'd spend a little bit more on a Panasonic instead.

Reviews

  • Pioneer PDP-LX509A

    THe Pioneer PDP-LX509A is the last generation of the company's Kuro panels and features a 1080p resolution and five times the contrast of the previous models.

  • TEAC LCDV3253HD

    The TEAC LCDV3253HD offers a good deal of features and convenience, but doesn't really offer what we consider more important — performance.

  • Pioneer Kuro KRP-600M

    Pioneer's KRP-600M is the continuation of its Kuro line, and is a monitor only. It brings high quality, 60-inch imaging at a monolithic AU$12,499.

  • Panasonic VIERA TX-32LXD80A

    The Panasonic VIERA TX-32LXD80A is a strong performer for the price in terms of picture quality, but it's let down slightly by its lacklustre sound.

  • Toshiba Regza 42AV500A

    The Toshiba Regza 42AV500A is a great mid-range unit with an attractive price point. It's not perfect but it will certainly please the budget consumer.

  • Panasonic TH-42PX8A

    The Panasonic TH-42PX8A is a marked improvement on the 700 series, which is quite an achievement for a budget plasma. Pity it's not true HD, though.

  • LG 42PG60UD

    The LG 42PG60UD is a large improvement on the LG plasma range and will no doubt suit anyone looking for a 720p television with style and quality.

  • Panasonic TH-50PX80A

    The Panasonic TH-50PX80A is a 50-inch plasma which features a resolution of 1366x768, support for the 24p standard and 3 HDMI ports.
