Description: The Pioneer PRO-1410HD is a 61-inch, plasma television.Compared to other plasma TVs on the market, it is expensive at around $5,000.In general, a liquid plasma display can recreate more realistic black-levels than an LCD display can.

Pros: Has a 61-inch screen size.This is larger than the average TV on the market today, but is to be expected for a TV of this price.With built-in HDTV compatibility, this TV set can display images that are significantly sharper and more realistic than regular television, as long as the source is high definition.(It can easily render standard-resolution digital TV broadcasts and also depict the full resolution of widescreen DVD video.)The 3:2 pulldown feature of this TV reduces artifacts that can occur when motion pictures are transferred to a digital format such as DVD.

Cons: Has only a rear connector location.

Suitability: A plasma TV, suited for home entertainment.

Value: In general, this TV's price seems a bit steep, with respect to its features.
