ATM yes Plasma is the way to go for a very large flat screen TV. Re: Pioneer here's a Gadget show review / video pioneer-pdplx5090-ut

I'd personally say over 42" and you should look seriously at plasma. 42" and below is fine for LCD imo, although some purists still say that anything under 40" should be LDC and 40" up should be plasma.

Why, are so many people bitten by this fallacy that LCD is no good over 42", sure it used to be true, but these days, the latest LCDs are more than a match for Plasma TVs.
As long as you get the TV calibrated, and purchase a quality model, you wont have problems.
I looked closely at LCD and PLASMA screens, before making a decision recently, black levels were my biggest concern, in the end i opted for a 52" 1080p Sony Bravia W4000.
it cost nearly 2k but if you shop around you can find it cheaper now. after calibration i must admit the PQ is astounding and so are the black levels and shadow definition. its worth a look.

I have a 42" LCD - can't knock it at all.
