The 60-inch KURO is the ultimate conversation piece. Even when off, the KURO with its high-gloss, jet black finish and imposing size draws to it all the eyeballs in the room. You can sense the anticipation visitors have about how good the KURO picture...

I initially found the 60-inch KURO to be physically noisy. A slight hum emanating from the screen was most noticeable when watching DirecTV and somewhat noticeable with other sources. Over time however, as the set has broken in, the hum has become far...
