What HD-receiver would you choose

[jeandubois]

I'm going to buy another satellite receiver as more and more channels are transmitting in HD. I prefer a linux-box as I have a DM7020Si now. I have the following list:
Xtrend 9500
DM7020HD
Vu+Ultimo

which one would you choose and what are the pros and cons?

thanks
Jean

hi jeandubois

from the three you have picked i would go for the xtrend it will do all you need and is more or less at the correct price

the other 2 are just way over priced at the end of the day they are only sat receivers

they are all good boxs and more or less do the same thing

if you really need the three tuners but i doubt you do then the ultimo would be what you need but seeing as your asking about the other boxs i dont think you need to go to the expense of the ultimo

and as with all the dm range it will be at a very over inflated price so leave it alone

just my thoughts

they are all good boxs depends how much you want to spend i also notice they are twin tuner boxs do you need a twin tuner if not you have the vu+uno,xtrend 6xxx, and the sunray 800hd to mention a few they are all good boxes it really depends how much money you are willing to part with

the ultimo can be a 3 box tuner,2 tuners are enough for most people.
