I recently moved to the US. I had a Pioneer LX5090 in the UK which I have now sold (didn't want to ship it here, get involved with power converters and any other issues).

I want a 60"+ TV here. I have found a few places still selling the Pio KRP-600M new, although at a high price - $4,995. Or... I can have the Samsung 63" C8000 for $3,400.

Is the new Samsung close to the Kuro in terms of quality and performance, or is there still a large gap? Have got HD cable TV, a Blu Ray player and XBOX 360 I will be using with it.

Hmmmm - thanks, I know you are an expert on this stuff. Is there really still that large a gap? The reviews for the new 63C8000 all seem very good.
