CNET Asia Review
Excellent
The good: Able to reproduce deep blacks; solid feature package; sleek; glossy-black finish; good connectivity. View score
The bad: Less than perfect color decoding with red push; minor visible low-level noise in dark materials.
The bottom line: The Pioneer PDP-506HD offers excellent picture quality, great style and superior features--its only real downside is that it's priced more than the competition.

Best picture around
Mar 30, 2006Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Just simply incredible picture
Cons: Connectivity options limited
Opinion:
I ended up buying this plasma after giving up on larger-screen LCDs. This model and the Panasonic models had great reviews but this was Pioneer's latest generation model and Panasonic's latest one is 4-6 months away. The picture detail and black level are just incredible. I have absolutely no regrets over buying this. The only question I have is why this model for Asia includes a Media box with only one HDMI connection and one analog tuner. The models for Europe and the USA both have 2 HDMI connections, PC Card connection and dual tuners including HDTV ASC tuner. Why not our model here in Asia?
Amazing picture

Saw the screen at one of the shops in Australia, sharp and virtually no simmering picture. Better than LCD for smooth action.
