      Hi,
      Try the amiko alien 2 twin tuner. For 150 pounds you can't really beat it.
      Plus you can either run the spark firmware (very good) or your preferred enigma 2 image.
      Single tuner can bought off ebay for about 100 pounds.

        From what i've read so far the enigma 2 isn't up to much on the box yet.

            got a vu+duo clone, my one just will not pick up the fringe satelites, there are lots of threads around saying their tuners are not any good on weak transponders

                      how is this box better than the tm5042 talking about the amiko 2?

                            +1 with the above, cracking box, great value.
                            Then again, Vu+ SOlos at ?120 + delivery is a steal

                              what box is a clone of dreambox/technomate or vu+. i keep hearing that, but i have not heard anybody mentioned a specific box that is a clone either of the boxes.
                              you understand as well that every seller on eBay claims that his is not a clone. so it would nice to state which box is either a ''good'' clone of particular box or bad clone

                                Amiko alien triple tuner. pvr with an external hard-drive.
                                2 card readers.
                                its dual boot, spark and also runs engima2.
