Pioneer ends production of the KURO plasma TV
Posted by ryanmckenzie in General

Pioneer has become a premium manufacturer of high end displays, including the very popular KURO line. After an estimated loss of £70million, they have announced that they are pulling the plug on production of the KURO plasma TVs. Pioneer will still be selling Kuro TVs, using in house technology, but the panels will be outsourced.
Pioneer is also planning on moving into the LCD market, and partnering with Sharp, the displays will be sold under the KURO name. Pioneer hasn’t announced whether or not production of the amazing prototypes revealed at CES earlier this year will continue or not.
