    Which Box to Buy?

    Evening guys,
    I'm looking to buy a new box to replace my A750 and wondered what was out there at a fair price. I'm running an A780 at moment with no problems....but was a little concerned it might be turned off soon????
    I've had a Starview 7 but don't want the subs issues.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

      Hi PSPmixer, thanks for the info. If you can PM me the A850 supplier that would be great. I've been offered a Dreambox 500C, not had one, have you had any experience with these boxes?

        dm500c is a clone and a c/s box and a taboo subject

          Is a KV box a CS box?

            to that i would answer no as you buy the box and flash it nothing else to do,with the other type of boxes the common question is can you recommend a good server then google or a closed thread will be it.

            next mod please i can smell them lining up

              It is a CS box and Mods don't need to line up. When describing subjects here as taboo please remember the old adage of "stones and glasshouses".

              We will decide what is taboo, but we also will not let a fine line dictate what is CS or not. The Starview section is heavily moderated because of this fact, the KV section less so, but this may change if it is continually used as a means of discerning one pay service from another to gain custom.

                  At the end of the day it's your choice based upon ease of use and budget. However given the wealth of knowledge in both our cable and satellite sections you will find exactly what is required to match your viewing requirements.

                    line up was a pun for another mod to have their say,no offence to anyone,if unsure google card share,and as satsmo has stated its your choice,just do plenty of research first for anything you buy.
