    Cheap and Cheerful box

    Hey Guys,

    Im looking to get a quick cheap box, but it has to be a DVB-S2, anyone know a good make that also runs cccam aswell as DVB-S2?

    Doesnt have to be HD but if anyone knows of a HD one thats cheap then thats fine, its for my rooms, and just for football.

    Thanks to anyone.

        as with most boxes its fairly straightforward using a usb stick

        almost all boxes allow for diseqc and usals

        and you will need cs if you want footy

            eagle800HD or openbox are the cheapest

            better ones are blade , spiderbox or similar HD boxes , the blade being a good all-rounder

              openbox slightly cheaper @ around ?60, dont forget these are closed source receivers so dont expect to be able to customise as well as you can on your dm500.

                Yeah i thought about that aswell, but then i knew, to get a good one, i'd have to probably get a dm800se but i dont really need that tbh.

                I had an openbox, had a very bad exp with it, so its abit off putting, but i know i may have been an unlucky one, i may give it another go.

                  Openbox s9 looks cheap and ok.

                  Anyone ordered one from satfooldeals to see if the run clones and what not?
