    To DM800HD owners, what do use think of the box?

    What do use think of the box? Is it worth the price tag?

    I am planning on purchasing one in february at the latest march. I am going to buy a clone version from primusat as I have heard several times now that the clones from there are excellent.

    I've heard people say that there not keen on the 800 and i've even heard people say they prefer there 500s.

    So would like to hear if you like it and if so what it is you like about it?

    Also if you dont like it I would like to hear why also.

    Thanks guys

    Bought two from Roy at Primusat.First class service and good comms,
    Both had Rev k tuners and both have no fan but have Ferrari sim and stay lovely and cool.All this talk about glitching in hd,mine dont seem to and any problems Roy will give you a full refund so you cant go wrong.
    I thought i had a problem with one and he said send it back will give you full refund so you cant go wrong with that can you?

    Andy.

        Likewise bought mine from Primusat, and like Andy's no glitching and stays cool and alsogot excellent service!

        Though tbh, if i was in the market for a new box now it wouldn't be a dm800. I'd save the money a liitle longer and buy a box with twin tuners like the Vu+ Duo or Clarke-Tech ET9000....

                I can remember people saying that about the Rev L3 tuner saying how brill it was yet its a pile of crap made with cheaper componets than the Rev J or K.

                Personally new aint always better. Think the jurys still out though the reports so far are ok.

                My Rev K dont glitch and the box stays cool so cant complain.

                The one moan i have Gary is the speed of the box.
                The Dm 500 flies compared to the Dm 800hd but i watch alot of hd and the images look alot nicer on the Dm 800hd and it has a nicer EPG,not forgetting adding a hard drive.

                    from all that i have read from buyers from primusat ive not heard one person complaining about glitching.

                    What is the tuners in the primusat ferrari sim cards? Obviously they are doing the job.
