    Hi,

    I'm looking to buy a Vu+ Duo in the coming weeks, just thought I'd join and read up a little.

    Ahh, it's Mr. Pop himself

    How you enjoying your new Duo mate?
    I don't really need twin tuners, but I don't fancy the Solo, too basic imo.

    Hi Witchy to the forums, great to have you here.

    Yes the Duo is a superb receiver, but theres nothing wrong with the Solo. Read my review HERE, It really is a great single tuner HD receiver.

    The main stumbling block for me is the lack of an internal HD and rear power switch and no VFD.

    I'll have a read of your review though, it'll maybe sway me.
