Greetings everyone,
this is my first message on the forum: I've subscribed hoping that someone here can shed some light on this HDTV that, when reviewed, seems to be the state of art in terms of video quality, but leaves me perplexed every time I see it live.

I am looking for an HDTV between 58 and 65 inches, and all the "experts" suggest me the Pioneer Kuro LX6090, again and again and again. Nonetheless, when I saw it in a store side to side with Sony Bravia X4500 LCD (55 inches) or even a rather anonymous 63 inches Samsung flat panel, it looked to me that the Kuro was inferior in terms of definition and crispness. This happened with full hd sources, and the thing got even worse with 720p and Standard Definition (this last one looking simply atrocious)

What can you tell me about my experience/perception, that seems to clash a lot with the pro reviews and the tech specs of the Kuro?

Thank you in advance,

- andrea
