Following this maxim to the last letter, the Pioneer KRP500 offers a wide range of audio and video connections. First, two HDMI inputs offer the most advanced, single-cable audio/video connection available. Second, one DVI input with HDCP serves up additional HD connectivity. Third, one composite video input offers a versatile analog connection. Finally, expanding the KRP500’s capabilities beyond traditional video sources, a PC input gives you the ability to hook this LCD panel up to a computer or laptop source for viewing internet-streamed video content.

The KRP-500A has a number of nifty extras. Firstly, the colour sensor deserves a mention. This little magnetic ‘eye’ is supposed to monitor the ambient light conditions — not brightness, that’s handled by a separate light sensor — for any changes. The idea is if you switch from, say, halogen lights to softer up-lighters, the TV will compensate for the resulting colour temperature change.

Review By Vanns

Pioneer’s deep encased cell structure means that each individual pixel in the KRP500’s display is encased in its own cell, with walls on all sides so that light doesn’t bleed into neighboring cells. This energy-efficient design allows each pixel to deliver a more concentrated beam of light, for truer colors and brighter images. The clear front surface of the KRP500’s display is actually a precisely manufactured optical-grade, non-glass color filter bonded directly to the plasma panel. This filter increases the spectrum of light emitted by the plasma, for a fuller range of colors and exceptional color accuracy compared to front filters made of glass.

Review By Hdtvlounge

Connectivity is very good on the Pioneer KRP-500, with DLNA support, Kuro link, 4x HDMI, component, 3x scart, PC VGA, USB and Ethernet inputs. TrustedReviews gave the KRP-500A a stunning 10/10 for image quality and over all rating, and said, results are going to be more or less gobsmackingly good, with class leading black levels, stunningly rich colours, impeccable sharpness, and good motion handling. Quality is improved enough to add an extra reason for AV fans to pick a KRP-500A over the ‘integrated’ Pioneer plasma models.

HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. An HDTV’s panel emitts light to communicate a visual image to your eyes. The panel’s Optimum Mode uses a built-in room light sensor to measure levels of ambient light, and then analyzes video content and adjusts the panel’s performance for a video picture that’s optimized for the conditions in your home theater.
