I'd disagree, I got duo2, hd2400, lx3 and et10k. Duo2 IMO is the worst performer of the lot with more less same hardware specs.
Remote with Duo2 is not great, centre silver button lets it down big time. Colour LCD just an expensive gimmick that hinders performance. Drivers on duo2 no better than any other models in its range, but it seems your on a crusade to discredit Xtrend going by many of your posts on different forums.
Tuner versatility on Duo2 is not great either with only 2 tuner slots. Et10k and hd2400 much more versatile.
Anyway back on topic, op never even mentioned the 10k.

With Duo2 you can have 2 x dual tuners which makes it 4 tuner box for example in C/T2 use.
Just copying Xtrend`s homepage of ET10000:
Real Quad Tuner PVR. Using a Loop Trough Output without having to use a splitter. All of the Quad tuners support DVB-C, DVB-T, DVB-T2, DVB-S and DVB-S2.
ET10000 can not operate with 4 x Si2169 internal T2 tuners. Only with three.

One final question if you guys wouldn't mind, I'm looking at getting my own HDD and was looking at this one - http://www.dabs.com/products/toshiba...42730000&src=3
Would this suit the ET8000?
for best results you need a 5,400 rpm Hard Drive a 7,200 rpm will work but is not needed i have Toshiba 3TB drive's in my ET10k & Duo2 as i record a lot of programs but you can get them now for about £70 http://www.ebuyer.com/461603-toshiba...k-pa4293e-1hn0
If fitting 3.5" as post above go for a 5400 rpm or a 2.5" drive.

Hi jbeer.
In the same boat, and wondering how you got on? I'm looking to replace a sky HD box with an 8000. Is picture quality as good?
Thanks
