| Pioneer Ships Its Line of Elite KURO Signature Series Monitors Pioneer Electronics is now shipping its line of Elite KURO Signature Series monitors designed to deliver KURO's reference-class picture quality with a bevy of features designed and built for high-end home theater installations. Each Signature Series monitor is carefully selected at the factory, representing the highest-level of Pioneer technology and craftsmanship. Every monitor is accompanied by a signed certificate further validating the Company's commitment to providing only the best-in-class panels for this limited run series. Packaged with an elegantly-boxed certificate of authenticity unique to each panel, the Signature Series monitors assure custom installers that each monitor will perform and can be calibrated with the finest increments for the most precise picture possible. The new Elite monitor line embodies Pioneer's highest performance standards by exceeding capabilities and settings found in the highly acclaimed line of KURO televisions. Many of the precision parts used in the monitor line are carefully selected by factory engineers and undergo further hand and machine inspection, including measuring for the deepest black levels, peak brightness, white balance and heightened color accuracy that collectively are vital for extensive professional in-home calibration. With pinpoint accuracy at the forefront, studio and movie professionals are seeking the new line of monitors as their new reference standard and a replacement to the CRT in editing. Citing the ability to produce intense black levels combined with the power to finely tune each picture setting to the precise measurement studio professionals agonize over for days in production. With a host of control options, including IP control, integrators are able to set up, monitor and run self-diagnostics on the panel for an entirely new level of customer service. A broad range of signal support, multiple menu structures and finer steps of adjustment for picture and gamma widen the gap between the new line of monitors and Pioneer's KURO televisions, giving custom installers another alternative within Pioneer's offerings. Pioneer designed its Signature Series monitors with an integration-friendly design for improved versatility and consumer convenience: - Slimmer Profile – With a depth of only 2.5-inches, the new monitors are 35 percent thinner than Pioneer's KURO televisions. A thinner design gives installers maximum flexibility for a variety of high-end home theater spaces. This enhanced form factor also brings Pioneer one step closer to its ultimate goal of producing a stunning picture that appears to be floating on a wall. - Slimmer Wall Mounts – To maintain the sleek installation appearance, Pioneer brings to market a uniquely designed optional wall mount that maintains the monitor's minimal design and aesthetics. - White Balance Certification – Using the unique serial number, Signature Series owners can access the white balance their monitors had when leaving the factory. This microsite gives owners the confidence in knowing their monitor is a one-of-a-kind piece offering optimum performance. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Computing News :: home page |
