I Just stumbled upon this forum by accident, and I gotta say I love it.

A lot of info about Home Theater.

I personally live in Europe and plasma isn't as populair here as in the US.

BUT.. me and my dad have finally made up our minds, we're gonna buy plasma.

Everyone here seems really ok with the 42" panny.

Before I read this forum, I was really convinced with the NEW pioneer.

I have read about a 503 here, but the name is not the same.

The one in Europe (which has yet come out) is:


PDP-503HDE --> 50"


The 2 panasonice models are:


42" --> TH-42PW4EX

50" --> TH-50PHW3


Are these the same models as in the US...but PAL.


The links to both plasma manufacturers are:


Pioneer: http://www.pioneer-eur.com/ifa/pr1.htm

Panasonic: http://www.panasonic.nl/producten/product.asp? c_id=250#TH-50PHW3

http://www.panasonic.nl/producten/pr...250#TH-42PW4EX



Can anybody tell me about this?


THanks ALoT

Hi Erwin,


Look at this thread:

http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...threadid=48049


The HDE version is the EU consumer version - maybe comparable with the US Pro model. Look at the pioneer grey-shade issue! The US Pro model is said to have also 256 levels like the EU HDE's.


Cheers, Walter
