In Reply to: RE: I respectfully disagree. I've read plenty of reviews saying Kuro has never been equalled--- and never will, in posted by tinear on August 20, 2014 at 10:05:39
I don't watch the computer graphics, and in real world blackness doesn't even exist.Those who claim you need the blackest black to watch the B&W film conveniently forget the fact that the blackest black on film is actually just very dark gray.
I will buy a Kuro when I am ready to watch a black hole. There is now a very special material, developed by the Brits, that is the closest thing to true black on Earth. Another candidate for Kuro.
Single-mindedness is never a good guide. To me, other things, such as natural flesh tone are far more important than Black Holes.
BTW - do you really think posting a 2011 opinion in 2014 is all that cool? :)

rest of the spectrum. And the Kuro has the most natural color of any TV I've seen. LED doesn't come close, it's like comparing bad digital to good tube.
The Panasonic is based on the Kuro, but cheaper materials (this from a review by a techie). They also left off the truly expensive stuff so as to be able to come in at a far cheaper price point.
Anyhow, it's all somewhat subjective. I don't have an axe to grind, however, like lots of reviewers do: it wouldn't exactly help product sales to concede that excellence years ago cannot be matched.
The quest for the lowest distortions in audio amps.
Remember than .001% was better than .002%?
Same thing here... people argue that .0005 candle is "better" than .001.
And I often wonder (NOT!) just how many angels *can* dance on the head of a pin? But maybe that's just me....
