guide to buying a dm800

[mario123]

i would like some1 to explain the difference with bootloader and sim versions? in the dm800 please.

i am looking at 2 at the min.

DREAMBOX DM800HD
(NEW VERSION DM800PRO)
SATELLITE RECEIVER (clone)
Bootloader 76D Gemini v5.10, SIM version 2.01 LATEST Tuner version (M) BSBE2-801A


and


DM800HD PVR w/ REV M Tuner
COMES WITH DVI -> HDMI CABLE

Bootloader 76 Sim 2.01 with latest REV M tuner

Comes boxed with manual and all cables, remote and power supply






is one better than the other which one would i be best to get?

either of those are fine ,the important thing is both have the new rev m tuner (older tuners were weak and pictures would freeze a lot ) rev m tuners are good .as regard sim and bootloader versions all you need to do is get an image suitable for sim 2.01 bl76 and you will be fine.

hi, seems the same, but second one could be a older box with new tuner added, cause it doesnt say its a dm800pro, difference would be when you put it in standby the internal fan would stop spinning

Well all my boxes i purchase are from ukdreamshop and the quality and the new 801a M tuner is fantastic, you must also be aware there is a M 401a tuner witch is no where near as good as the 801a... also I notice ukdreamshop have 76d bootloader installed where the other only has 76 installed witch sounds like a old mainboard with a diff tuner put it weather its the 401a or the 801a who knows, be safe and get it from ukdreamshop you will get a great service and allot of people on here will say the same as me
