good stuff . the only downside for me is the tuner again its worse than the dm 7000 apart from that its ok .picture quality is best ever seen on a receiver and im talking about sd not hd , now the images are improving slowly and thers a lot to improve .
if you go for one keep away from clones .

same here get one best reciever ive ever had and ive had a few over the 12 years.

BUT it takes some getting used too, its not very user friendly

pic quality is the dogs bullocks on sd and hd

Had mine a few weeks now. Great little box, very stable with latest Blackhole image. Software for cams etc still very much in development but I have the internal reader working on an M2+card and looks to be get better all the time. Lots of comments about it running hot but mine isnt very hot at all although I dont have a HD installed. Cant comment about sharing, would like to try but I have nothing to share :frown:

I will add my vote for get one as I am more than happy with mine. Lovely little box excellent picture and great fun to use :respect-applause-00

Now as above I have read all the stuff about the box running hot and mine runs no hotter than my 600 and given that I had it running all through the summer here (which in Malta gets pretty damn hot) last year and have a hdd in it I still have no idea what the fuss about heat is about....

Maybe I jusy got lucky however I did get one of the first batch and they are supposed to be the worst accroding to many of the reports I read?

yep deffo a good box ..mine is connected to my 1.8m Dish and V-box very stunning HD pics ive had mine since early last year so almost 1 year old now and never had any problems . The tuner can be annoying at times but much more stable with E2 images and channl lists ,
not great for networking but keep below 50 client and it'll run fine .
reads my cyfra + seca3 card just fine aswell also can read > g a m m a> cards aswell among many others ,
no complaints here in general ive had loads fun with my dm800HD ,:king-041::respect-048::king-041:
