I would love a VU+ Duo 2. Wouldn't we all I suppose.
I have a Openbox V8s and a Zgemma S2.
My question is, would I see that amount of difference for the price.
Only have a Mifi dongle with EE, fast though. Would this hold a more consistent signal?
What model number do I want for my sky dish. Prefer twin tuner, have plenty of 2.5 HDD laying around.
Cheers to anyone helping me out.

I have a VU Duo2 and its very good.

I suppose it is not everybody's cup of tea but its a nice powerful bit of equipment and the LCD screen just finishes it off IMO but like i say many will see that as a gimmick.

It compliments the rest of my equipment very well. But this is coming from someone who owned a Spiderbox 9000HD for years and still does!

Personally i would go for the Extrend ET8000 i have a Duo2 - ET10000 -Mut@nt HD2400 - Golden Interstar Xpeed LX3 and a Gigablue Quad+ i Love the Mutant & the LX3 but my Favorite has to be the Xtrend they are well made and i think have one of the best Remote Controls or any of the above Receivers

I have to disagree, the Mut@nt HD2400 is my fave receiver, followed by my Vu+ Solo2 and then the ET10K. lol

Cheers for comments.
Now even harder to decide!!1
All I really want is a box that will handle my mifi dongle the best. Have no bt line.
Also picture quality.:beer_toast::beer_toast:
Anyone with any suggestions about any other way I can get a constant signal as wifi tends to drop out every 8 secs.
Think this is just the way wifi works. The Openbox seems to be better at this than the Zgemma.

Wifi is not the best option imo. Best option is to get a landline and broadband package and go hardwired. [emoji13]

as you dont have a bt line,vm broadband/tv ?you are limited to sat if neither but boxes need a good lan connection even homeplugs.not advisable with someone elses wifi:smash::smash:

you need a working lan feed or left with freesat,all these boxes need a sat/cable/terrestrial feed + lan to do other things like kodi direct just on lan service:)
