Help me pick my new box please

[Dub12Dave]

Over the years since I converted from cable to sat I have had many boxes and the time is right for a new box, unbelievably I have never had a Dreambox well I had the 500s as my first sat box but I am not counting that, the boxes I have at the minute are.
1...Vu Duo original
2...Amiko Alien 2 triple tuner
3...Amiko Alien 8900 SHD
4...Openbox s10
I have a bugdet of ?200 and I am looking at maybe
1...Vu solo
2...Vu uno
3...Dreambox either 500HD/600 or 800
I do not mind getting a clone of any of the above or original if I can sell what I already have but my budget is tight and I don't really want to sell any so.....do you own any of the boxes I am after and which of the above would you recommend, I have done all the reading etc but there is nothing like getting first hand information from the guys in the know, it will be used on a fixed dish and for 28.2 only and will be used 99.9% of the time for simply watching tv so it doesn't really need to be able to sing and dance, If you have a clone please can you say where you purchased it from, Thanks for any replies.

I fail to see what is wrong with the ones you own, they should all work fine, but if you really need a new box any of the choices you mentioned will work

dm800hdse clone ?130... as clones go there well made, fast run cool and have a quite fan. they also have excellent image support from the sim2 team. your budget limits you from the top end boxs although look at the vu+uno v3 clone at around ?145. regards mdt

I know what you mean ramjet it's just that I am trying to find a box that I actually like, I know that might sound stupid as they all basically do the same thing just so far no box has really impressed me although I really like my Amiko Alien 8900 over all the others. I have been given a link to a site that sells clone boxes this is it http://www.artsat-dvb.com/sdp/115209..._dvb-s2_Z.html they seem really cheap and they come highly recommended by a user we all know on sat forums, has any other user any experience using them as their prices just seem to cheap, Thanks again for any help chaps.

Dont forget you have your postage on top of that price as well so some of them come in around what mos of the other PRC sites are charging
