I would guess ET10000 is pretty sold out, although available in Europe at the current pound:euro rate not worth considering.
Unless you want transcoding or 4 tuners, I would go for the newer ET8500.
I think most providers such as Mut@nt (now), Gigablue (almost) and Xtrend (4Q 2016) are shipping new 4K models.

which is a better box, et10000 or et8500... as for the screen, im not one for gimmicky front lcd screen.
As far as 4k, my tv only supports 1080p and also not worth investing into 4k. Few more years before widely accessible and enough content to make it viable.
Neither. lol. Thats just my personal opinion, but the ET8500 is a bargain at that price so a no brainer if you are looking for a new receiver.

4K will be more catered for Streaming services, not for satellite. Thats my opinion.As far as 4k, my tv only supports 1080p and also not worth investing into 4k. Few more years before widely accessible and enough content to make it viable.

so in your opinion vu duo 2 the best?
200 euros + shippingis the price i have seen et10000 on a German site.. Ideally i want receiver with hardware transcoding which i believe et10000 offers. I may try streaming cable channels and also need to connect omnikey readers.
Yeah ET10K and Vu+ Duo2 offer hardware transcoding. Out the two receivers I prefer the Vu+, but that is just my opinion.

But then Andy would buy Ice cubes from Vu as long as they have the Vu logo stamped through them
If you decide to go ahead with the German web site, if you pm me first, I will let you know what I think of them
Ref 4K, these boxes will also support 1080 so as long as the technology is an improvement might be worth waiting.

tend to buy clones which have treated me well over the years
Feel like treating myself to a new box. I wont be buying Vu. Very good support but far too overpriced considering what competitors are offering. 3-4 tuners im looking at £400+ outlay.
How is Mutant HD51 comparable in terms of specification. Now i know support wont be nearly as good as Vu but overtime im sure they will improve.
Based on their track records, I think that you would be surprised Never heard many isues with Mut@nt, whereas Vu+ and their driver issues, you could write a book about
HD51 looks like a good basic model, with apparently the HD52 being the more up market model available later.
If I remember correctl no hardware transcoding on HD51

I wanted a box for transcoding so I managed to get an Xtrend et10000 a couple of weeks ago for 199 euros (about £170), I think it only took 3 days to arrive too. I won't post the site because i think it's against forum rules but it's from the german domain (.de) of a marketplace I have a prime account with
