It's too bad about the Pioneer sets. They even had a nice heavy look to them, looked very solid. Good looking with colors other than black available. I remember seeing cream white and dark red ones in gloss finish, gorgeous.

This TV is by far the closest i've felt to wanting a NON B&O TV, i still don't think i could do it, but is very very nice for kikinoko, i do say.

 

Samsung make some nifty products!

It is nice. I have seen it in person. Still has a lot of plastic. All the plugs are in the base so it seems that can't be hang to the wall. The remote is cheap plastic. Also the price is not that affordable. It is around of more than $6,000.00 in USA. If you are in Europe I would say the closest to B&O is Loewe nothing else, still you know Loewe is a wannabe B&O, in any case their products compared to ANYTHING else available is the closest to B&O you can get, for a price.

The Samsung 9000 series is an edge-lit display, which is great if you want something super thin but performance is going to be sub-par compared to a plasma or full local dimming LED.
