The TH-VX100U is Panasonic’s so-called Premiere series of plasma TVs, new for 2009 and distinguished by pro-grade parts and connections, numerous picture adjustments, and a picture quality similar to the highest-end standard Panasonic plasmas such as the TH-PZ800U and TH-PZ850U series from 2008. Unlike those models or any of the new 2009 plasmas Panasonic announced at CES, the Premiere series is marketed by the company’s professional division, much like the TH-PF11UK series we reviewed previously. Like those, the TH-VX100U isn’t technically a TV. It’s a monitor, lacking a tuner, speakers, and various extras found on most standard televisions.

The TH-65VX100U incorporates a number of Panasonic’s proprietary, world-leading technologies. The deepest, richest blacks are achieved by using Panasonic’s latest-generation panels with a new Dynamic Black Layer on the front end, reducing pre-discharge to one-sixth that of conventional plasma models, while boosting the contrast ratio to 60,000:1. A newly designed phosphor material process technology and optical filter allows for an expanded color range that covers 120% of the HDTV color standard.

As a monitor, the 65VX100U adds controls and features that are seldom found in conventional HDTVs. But it’s also missing a few features that may be important to some buyers. There are no onboard TV tuners of any kind, either SD or HD. If you rely on an over-the-air antenna, you’ll need an outboard ATSC tuner, which was common in the early days of HDTV but scarce in today’s consumer market. If you use a cable or satellite set-top box, you won’t need an onboard tuner.

Panasonic’s world-leading 18-bit digital signal processing produces a detailed gradation from light to dark, with faithful expression of subtle color differences, while enhanced moving picture resolution results in clearer, crisper, and smoother moving images.
Each model in the Premiere Series line will be equipped with outstanding customizable functions for high-end home theater connoisseurs, including 16 adjustment menus covering items such as six gamma curve options and white balance settings, and an advanced memory function that makes it possible to name and save equalized data.
