    What is the cheapest enigma2 box you can buy?

    Im looking for a cheap box for another room in my house. It does NOT have to be HD (i dont have a HDTV in that room), but preferably would prefer a enigma2 box over a enigma1 if possible.
    What is the cheapest box I can buy? It can be any brand (Dreambox, VuBox, Openbox etc)
    Any ideas? Non-HD and Cheap..
    - Thanks to those who deserve them, and none to those who don't...

      If you dont want a HD box then I dont see any point looking for anything else than a dm500 / blade 500.

          Openbox cheap as chips and it does what it says on the tin with no fancy menu/epg etc about ?55.

              I would go for a dm500s type box, very good box that you can setup channels listings similar to your E2 box, can also setup epg on them aswell for roughly ?45 del.

                  800 Pro ordered from China ?100 E2 and HD. As far as I am aware there is no such thing as a Enigma2 receiver that does not support HD

                          also a Enigma receiver not Enigma2

                              to quote your previous post.

                              the DM7025 IS a Enigma2 receiver that does not support HD.
                              i use one personally.

                              dont believe anything you read from "cut and paste extraordinaire" martin pipe.

                                  Is there any non beta images out there for the 7025 currently being worked ?

                                  AFAIK there is real support if any, so not a viable option.

                                      In defense of the E2 images for 7025 n 600( which I have ) PCD is very helpful n supportive of these images. IMHO a viable option if you have or can get cheap one of these boxes.

                                      While maybe not for your average end user they are E2 on a non HD box and very functional.

                                      But I would agree that New 500s for non HD is a no brainer n E1 is more than fine on a secondary box.
