Pioneer PDP-5000EX 50" Plasma Screen
Could the Pioneer PDP-5000EX be the best plasma screen ever? Pioneer seem to think so and looking at the specification they are justified to feel that way, Boasting an incredible 1920 x 1080 dpi which is a world first this 50" plasma screen also has an improved refresh rate to deliver even sharper and smoother pictures. Designed primarily for high definition sources, well you'd be mad not feed the Pioneer PDP-5000EX anything else, it will also accept standard signal and smart scale them up to high definition for optimum quality.
The new Pioneer PDP-5000EX 50" Plasma Screen also makes use of propietary Pioneer technology such as PURE Drive 2 HD Signal Processing, to give the best contrast and brightness that a plasma screen can offer. The Pioneer also features an array of inputs such as component, composite, HDMI, and HDCP DVI inputs.
However all this technology does not come cheap. Anyone who is considering travelling down to their local Pioneer stockists will need a hefty six grand in their back pocket to get one, but you will get something that looks fantastic and outperforms just about everything else currently on the market. Look at it this way you are paying about 2p a pixel so it does not sound as bad.
