Pioneer’s blackest ever Kuro
Pioneer’s Kuro screens have always been renowned for their deep blacks, but the firm’s latest screens are even darker. Pioneer reckons its 2008 Kuros give blacks five times deeper than their predecessors, and even feature sensors to monitor the picture and room lighting at the same time, adjusting on the hop to give the best result possible. Available in 50 and 60 inch versions, expect to pay around £3,000 when they arrive later this year.
