New price is £270, so depending on age and condition, I would say probably about £200-£230 without any hdd...

Moved this thread from http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?35454-Vu-Ultimo to keep that thread clean. If you're looking to offer an ultimo, then please make an offer back on that thread :)

Its got 4 tuners, what else would give you a Quad Ultimo?.

maybe i mis-read when you said "2xtwin tuners".

to get a quad ultimo, you would have 1xdvb-s2, 1xdvb-s2, 1xtwin dvb-s2.

Or you could have 3 x Twin sat tuners have 6 tuners.

E2 now supports up to 8 tuners so those USB ports can aslo be used.

Yes, he did not mention USB tuners.

He has two twin tuners and one empty slot.

I stand corrected then.

I think the confusion is that the tuners have 2 connectors each but the bottom ones are loopthrough

As maxwell correctly says the Ultimo can support quad dvb-s/s2 tuners but only one of those can be a twin tuner, the other two must be single tuners.

Nope; the Ultimo only supports one dual-tuner board.
