Cash waiting for the right box.

I've got a solo 2 and love it. Just need a twin tuner at a reasonable price.

Sa1nts, I'm not local but could be interested with postage. Just please don't tell me you're not a St Helens RL fan??:rolleyes:

Ha ha! I'm a Yorkshire based pie eater!

£170 with hdd? WOS are doing a deal on them atm but you know what family are like, always want it doing for nothing!

I have a vu solo 2 and love it. This guy wants the same set up as mine so really want to stick with a vu. Thanks for the heads up though.

If using OpenViX Xtrends will have the same setup.

You won't go wrong with an xtrend 9500. It's superb value at £129, looks great and is quite a bit ahead of the dated Vu duo. I've fitted 3 of them for family members, no issues, no crashes and no annoying bloody phone calls asking me why the box won't do anything :p

The xtrends sound a good option but he's quite insistent on a vu box. If anyone has a twin tuner one with hdd, give me a shout.
