It worths every cents if you want the unmatched PQ and quality.
By the way, I don't see there is a need for a dedicated thread for this question.

Depending on who is answering the question.

For those who truly appreciate picture quality, it would be worth every sen. IMHO, the Kuro still holds the 'Title' for the best PQ.

Those who is looking for performance over money or plain calculative, might think that getting 2 Pannys would be better since the performance is not that 'distinct' to them.

12k better be spent for projector (if I had the money)

it's coming the specs are just finalized, you don't need to wait 2-3years to mature... it's just an extension of AVC codec.. and the rest is add-on hardware like apeture glasses amd HDMI 1.4...

as for the reference of BD, well I bought I started buying 2008, it didn't take long to go from HDMI 1.0 to HDMI 1.3.. or BD x1 to BD x8.. or BD profile 1.0 to BD profile 2.0..

Since this Kuro is for the PQ and not many ppl would look for 3D performance (like me), Kuro is still a good buy for the elites.

if you can upgrade TV every 2-3 years, I don't see why not.. go get it..  thumbup.gif  (I doubt 3years time KRP-500 will be so hot.. like how 428 was great in 2007  biggrin.gif )

for me, buy low-middle range and change every 2-3years..  biggrin.gif  sorry la.. poor fellas is like this wan..  sad.gif

I won't spend 12k for a 50" tv lor... too pricey for me liao sweat.gif
12k for a 63" then it's different story la. TV is getting cheaper and cheaper every year, don't want to throw money into sea.

This statement does not applies to elites. biggrin.gif
