This weekend went out and got a heck of a deal at Magnolia HiFi for a Pioneer 5070 TV and went to CC and got another great deal on a Bello' stand that matches the TV perfect. Enjoyed some playoof football in HD yesterday and can't wait for 24 tonight on HD. Here's a pic of my setup. Need to clean the wires up a little bit, but I can live with it for now.

It's the 5070 (50"). We can't discuss pricing in here but pm me if you want a price.

"24" was great tonight in HD. Got my digital coaxial cable hooked up to my comcast box tonight also to give me full 5.1 surround sound. I went from an older Pioneer Elite Pro 98 (before HD) and it has a great picture for an SD set, but what a difference HD makes.

Never noticed any buzzing from mine. Maybe you have a ground loop that's causing it. Check to make sure all cables are tight and secure and also the routing.

MSRP/List/Retail prices are allowed, but discount/sale/street prices are not allowed and are soon deleted by the forum's moderators.


Whenever you first join any forum, you should find and read that forum's rules and FAQs before posting. It's usually among the "sticky" posts stuck at the top of the forum, like the one here that you must have missed

so how long do I have to wait to get one of these for $2000 shipped. Will it be when the new one comes out?? If so what is the ETA on those

 

[cybertec]

max, congrats on a FANTASTIC PDP, there is nothing like watching TV in HD, with a PDP like that you need to get www.Dishnetwork.com , I got the Platinum package with all the HD chanells including locals in HD, most extensive HD package out there today, no cable or other satelite provider compares, left my Cable company TW Cable after 15 years, and could not have done it sooner, again, congrats and enjoy, you picked a great PDP.

I doubt you'd ever see a 5070 get down that low, and if it's successor ever does it would probably be at least a few years if at all, but i doubt even that.


The current models were released in late June last year, so the new ones will probably be released about the same time this year.

A thread already exists that may support some of the comments, questions or concerns regarding the Pioneer PDP-5070hd.

Thanks guys. I appreciate all your comments and I can't say enough about the Pioneer 5070HD. I'm probably the biggest procrastinator and research decisions like this till I'm blue in the face and have absolutely no regrets.

 

[seabrook]

Nice setup! I'd raise your left speaker so its height matches the right speaker's.

the continental one pass has it down to 2311 now and visual apex has a good price on it too. may not hit $2k with the 5070 but maybe the next models will.

Yeah, that's next on my list to build a speaker stand so that they are at the same height. Unfortunately I have run out of room along that wall as I would like to have them on matching stands but sometimes improvisation is necessary to make a less than good situation into a better situation.

i don't have any buzzing from my set, sorry that you have that. Maybe call pioneer tech support and they could lead you to the answer to fix that.
