Great News , I might just have to buy one now, But im confused on what one to get 🙁 Is the Pioneer KRP-500A that much better then 5090 ?

Mate, I am gunna make this short and sweet for you. Yes, it is noticeably better and worth paying the extra cash.

It's definitely a better screen, but then you'll have to worry about storing another piece of AV equipment! ÿDon't forget that it's got aÿseparateÿmedia box, even though it isn't too big.
