Pioneer creates 400GB optical disc: Like 16 layers of Blu-ray

Crave Barely half a year after Blu-ray won the format war we're now being told that Pioneer is working on the next big thing, and when we say big, we really do mean it. If Pioneer managed to make consumer burners capable of creating these discs, it would...

Photos: More gadget goodies from Pioneer's UK headquarters

Crave We got a first look at Pioneer's LCD TVs on Friday, but that wasn't enough. Pioneer once had a significant investment in Air and the two companies have worked closely together to produce audio equipment ever since.

Pioneer BDP-LX71: Making Blu-ray even more premium

Crave Since Pioneer has positioned itself as a high-end manufacturer, its job is to provide the very best players, even if 95 per cent of people can't tell the difference. It's a strategy that works well with Pioneer's TVs, which cost more, but have...

Photos: Pioneer Kuro PDP-LX6090 is big, black and beautiful

Crave Black is the new grey -- at least it is for Pioneer, which cares more about making TVs reproduce black properly than any other company in the world. When Kuro was introduced last year we weren't sure how far Pioneer could take the technology.

Pioneer PDP-428XD review

Reviews It's no secret that Pioneer has a long history of excellent televisions. There are some good explanations of the technology on the Pioneer Web site. If the new Kuro screens don't live up to their hype, Pioneer has plenty to lose.

All-in-one home cinema systems

Reviews If you want something more substantial, Pioneer's DCS-360 is one of the few systems that features floor-standing speakers. Sound is just as essential to enjoying a film as a decent display -- and there's no easier way of introducing surround sound...

Pioneer BDP-LX71 review

Reviews Pioneer has a particular standard it sticks to with home-cinema equipment -- you'll find that its AV receivers and DVD/Blu-ray players all fit together beautifully and are designed to work better with each other than mixing and matching components.

Pioneer DV-989: DVD for the rich and the famous

Crave But now that we've got the £800 Pioneer DV-989, the Denon looks like an impulse purchase -- something you'd buy on the way home from Harvey Nicks after purchasing an Armani suit. So why, when you can buy a DVD player from Amazon for £20, would you...

Pioneer PDP-428XD: The blackest plasma of them all

Pioneer Kuro PDP-LX6090 review

Reviews Because Pioneer aims to produce the best quality TVs, it places a lot of emphasis on picture processing. As we've noted with previous Pioneer products, the remote control is nothing short of a work of art.
