"Extraordinary TV (But buy it on sale!)"

There is a difference between the Pioneer Elite TVs and Non-Elites. Believe me, for the extra money, I carefully compared them side by side with the same content in my living room.

The price was high, but if you shop carefully, price match, and deal, you can save a lot of money. Some online retailers are not authorized Pioneer dealers, thereby void the warranty (I could not confirm this, however).

"Moire Artifact Trouble Known to Pioneer"

By ichibo780 (cnet.com)

I have observed a fleeting-to-noticeable moir... 

Beautiful 1080p reception with Blue Ray 95% of the time. Deep blacks. Very accurate colors. Capable jutter correction under the appropriate settings. Extraordinary. Nothing else I've looked at approaches its performance.

Limited trouble with high def TV/Satellite reception. Some channels exhibit a moire artifact, leaving the impression of looking through venetian blinds. This artifact is not present in BluRay with the appropriate firmware, or in XBox game play.
