'KURO' means black in Japanese.
But not just any black. Perfect black.
And in the television world, black is everything. Black encompasses the entire spectrum of colour. The deepest black levels produce the purest colours and the sharpest details.
Achieving the blackest blacks imaginable and building a screen that produces the absolute best picture quality in the world was the inspiration and driving force behind our newest flat screen TV.
KURO lets you see literally every shade between black and white; the most vivid and flawless colours.
The PDP-LX5090, one of our latest KURO TVs, is just 93mm thin and has an integrated digital terrestrial tuner.In short, KURO is a television that will let you see and hear like never before.

Like never before
Go beyond. Immerse yourself in a world where colours can be felt, sounds can be tasted and it all comes together to create something unlike anything that has ever existed. And nothing will be the same again.

Motion
KURO has grown out of our passion for the art form of the moving picture. Regardless of what you are watching – of how fast (or slow) the image is moving on screen, or how the lighting conditions on the actual video image change, you’ll see even the smallest details and the finest nuances in the best possible resolution.

Contrast
Contrast ratio answers the question of how black blacks can get on a flat screen television. The blacker the blacks, the better the colours and the more realistic the image appears on screen. KURO flat screen TVs display the deepest black levels possible because extreme contrast is at the very heart of the KURO concept.

Colour
KURO flat screen TVs accurately reproduce red, green and blue with smooth, delicate gradations - even in the darkest film scenes. By accuracy, we mean that the picture you see on screen is as true to the original as possible. What you see is clear and accurate. Every time.

Black levels
To create the deepest blacks in a flat screen TV, it is necessary to create a world completely absent of colour or light reflection. We have succeeded in further reducing the idling luminance and improving black levels to a depth far greater than ever thought possible. The result is a picture that possesses finer detail, greater contrast and richer colours – the reference in flat screen televisions.

In the television world, black is everything.
Since black encompasses the entire spectrum of colour, the ability to produce the deepest blacks results in the ability to generate the richest colours.
KURO flat screen TVs create black tones of such depth and purity that every detail, every colour, every shade comes brilliantly alive.

KURO means black
KURO means black in Japanese. Only the deepest levels of black can serve as a backdrop for the purest, most vibrant colours. And for detail with the most striking sharpness.
That’s why we’ve dedicated our energy to achieving blacks of unprecedented intensity; enabling you to see the deepest shades of black and the best picture possible.
When you cross the line and step into the world of KURO, you enter a new sensory space. Our highly sophisticated viewing solutions create a total experience that will change your perception of home entertainment forever.

Pristine quality.
With KURO, you can be sure that everything is processed in flawless quality. All KURO flat screen TVs and projectors are Full HD ‘HD ready 1080p’ and offer the ultimate picture performance.

Whatever you’re watching
Whether you’re watching a high-voltage action scene or a panoramic landscape view, KURO reproduces exceptionally clear and noise-free images.
Regardless of how fast (or slow) the image is moving on screen, or how the lighting conditions on the actual video image change, you’ll see even the smallest details and the finest nuances in the best possible resolution.

KURO contrast
‘Contrast ratio’ is perhaps the most confusing concept in the flat screen TV market, as most manufacturers measure it differently. But the most important thing to understand is that contrast ratio answers the question of how black blacks can get on a flat screen television.
The blacker the blacks, the better the colours and the more realistic the image appears on screen. KURO flat screen TVs display the deepest black levels possible because extreme contrast is at the very heart of the KURO concept.

Master quality cinema
Films are typically shot and encoded for cinema reproduction at 1080p and 24 frames per second. High definition discs, like Blu-ray, offer you access to ‘true to the original’ films.
KURO flat screen TVs and projectors are compatible with the 1080p/24 signals from Blu-ray players, which means that the latest in high definition video is within your reach.

What the experts say
Hear from the filmmakers – the cinematographers, the editors, the directors – how important black levels are in truly appreciating the art and emotion of film.

Complete connectivity. Total control.With a KURO flat screen TV, you’re perfectly equipped to receive digital-quality TV broadcasts. Every KURO not only features an integrated analogue tuner, but also a digital terrestrial (DVB-T) tuner for digital terrestrial TV reception.
Three to four HDMI inputs enable you to connect your KURO to your Blu-ray player, home cinema system or AV receiver with a single cable.
The top-of-the-line KURO TVs are DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) certified. This means they can simply be integrated into a home or local area network and play content such as music or photos from one or more connected media servers. This media content is directly available through the plasma’s Home Media Gallery function, nicely integrated in a new, modern-looking Graphical User Interface (GUI).
KURO LINK guarantees easy operation. It lets you control the main functions of compatible Pioneer equipment with the TV’s remote control.

Enhanced optimum mode
With their Enhanced Optimum Mode, KURO plasma TVs actively sense the light conditions, analyse the viewing content and fine-tune the TV accordingly, ensuring that the picture you see is as perfect as it can be. In addition, the audio is harmonised with the programme being watched. All KURO plasma TVs with separate media receiver come with an additional colour sensor that measures the colour characteristics of ambient light to provide the picture optimum to your eye’s sensation.

Backlight adjustment and ambient light sensor
To enhance black levels even further, KURO LCD TVs incorporate an automatic backlight adjustment function and an ambient light sensor.
By using advanced image processing to monitor the brightness of each video frame the backlight adjustment function adjusts the backlight intensity accordingly, creating seamless transitions with deep blacks and increased detail. The ambient light sensor optimises on-screen images according to the brightness of the room.

Intelligent brightness control
The Intelligent Brightness Control in KURO plasma TVs optimally adjusts your on-screen picture according to the brightness in your living environment, ensuring that what you see is at its absolute best, regardless of whether it’s dark or bright in the room.

Extra, extra, extra large home theatre.
Get the full cinematic experience with the high definition, high contrast and versatile KRF-9000FD front projector.
The KRF-9000FD delivers solid image reproduction, with an impressive native contrast ratio that will output deep, dark blacks. What you see is clear, precise and natural.
Fine-tune the colours to suit both your tastes and the content you're watching, too. The projector has a gamma control feature, so you are able to manually set the image brilliance in line with your personal preferences.
The KRF-9000FD is equipped to display full high definition images with a progressive resolution of 1,920 x 1,080p at 24 frames per second. This means that it can accurately reproduce HD sources like Blu-ray disc. What you see - and hear - is reproduced exactly as the film was shot, mastered and stored on the Blu-ray disc.
All digital video signals are transferred via HDMI directly from source to screen, with no signal conversion or compression.
And if you enjoy genuine cinematic aspect ratios, you can replicate this at home in the full-size 2.35: 1 format, but without the intrusive black bars normally displayed at the upper or lowers edges of the image.
The KRF-9000HD has a motorised, versatile lens; this means you can vary the image size to deliver the most compelling dimensions, regardless of the size of your room.
The wide adjustment range of the lens gives you flexibility in placement. The lens allows an approximate 80% vertical and 34% horizontal adjustment, which means the projector can be suspended anywhere on your ceiling or placed in most positions on the floor; or even offset at an angle to the screen.
Whichever way you install or look at it, you’ll experience an extra-large, high-definition, high impact image: the cinema screen brought home.
