I think this is a decision you must take on board yourself. I recommend getting a side-by-side comparison in a dealers demo room. Money wise, there's not going to be that much in it, £250 or so more for the 9thGen. The LX508D is an outgoing model, you may be able to pick up a deal for an ex-demo sample? Either way, IMO you wouldn't be disappointed with either panel.

I know which way I'd go out of these two but I'm personally waiting till August when the last (i.e. the 64mm thick, external tuner or not offerings) of the 9thGen Pioneer panels start hitting the shelves... ...it's your call but go DEMO the 508 & 5090.

Check the what hi fi test/report not a big difference between the 2 sets. The pdplx5090 is an improvement on the 5080 according to the report as i see it.
