Going to delve into the twin tuner market and would like your opinions on what box to get.I only wish to spend around the ?200 mark but cant decide on what to get.I would prefer one that is easy to setup and that mostly uses usb.Also what tuners would be best 2xdvb-s or 1xdvb-s and 1xdvb-t.I have no experience in the satellite end of things but did own a dreambox on cable a couple of years ago.I lokk forward to your opinions

You will be very limited on that price range. Qbox maybe.

if you can stretch to ?314 then you cant really go wrong with a Vu Duo. build quality is excellent and with support from image teams such as ViX / BH / PLI and many many more, you will be spoilt for choice.

There quite simply one of the best most supported boxes on the market.

Just so many boxes around and with not knowing anything about satellite and how to setup the boxes dont know what to do.A mate has the qbox hd mini and says it is good.He has it setup on oscam but he did not set the box up so no point asking him setup advice so want a box that is simple to setup

The qbox is a decent box but it's a bloody nightmare to setup and as the image is closed source your reliant on the manufacturers updating and releasing images for it, with a linux based box you have literally dozens of teams and many many thousands other devs constantly releasing plugins and updates.

dont worry about setting up the box you eventually go with as you will get all the help you need on this forum and others like it in that department.
