New receiver, Duo2 or ET10000?

[nsw9154]

I love the Mut@nt but the remote can take time to get used to but once you get used to it it's fine, but i still manage to turn it off sometimes when i go to press the record button as it's in a stupid place right beneath the power button and about time that Mut@nt sorted out a better remote, i liked it at first but it's little foibles are starting to get annoying
but the receiver itself is a cracker and probably the best one out their and to be honest most remotes have their good and bad points

now the Extrend ET10k i love the receiver and i love the remote so what more can i say

[nsw9154]

Hey nsw9154 I am looking to replace a Technomate Nano 3-T which while good does have some stability issues and I am thinking quad tuners is the way to go. I have narrowed my choice down to either the Mutant HD2400 and the ET10k and apart from the hardware transcoding usb port quantity and Ethernet port quantity they both seem very similar in most other regards.

I was wondering what is your impression of each of these boxes strengths and weaknesses in everyday use and which is your personal choice between the two?

just noticed your post olijack after i posted my comments above as the 9th was my birthday and i have just recovered

Wow it makes me laugh about remotes who cares has long has the box works well and I got to admit The Mutant HD 2400 will knock spots off any Vu or Xtrend .

I think a good remote is important when buying a receiver. And why do you think the mut@nt will "knock spots" of any other receiver?

So would you buy a Zgemma because it's a good remote . My son has a Vu duo and it ain't half has fast has the Mutant and to be honest I had the Solo and I would never touch one again Vu survives on its name how many times is there issues with drivers etc. Just my own opinion about Vu

I was not talking about Zgemma receivers. And you cant compare the Vu duo with the Mut@nt hd2400. The specs are completely different.

Might try the Xtrend next just for the remote

You never give any reason why you do not like the et10k

I love my et10k just works perfectly and as a serial receiver buyer I haven't bought anything new since iv had it, I think remote is very important when buying a receiver of such high spec and price as its the one thing you will use mostly is the remote

Most diehards here use a Harmony.

[casuk]

Most people don't want to spend an extra £100 for a remote after paying over £200 on a receiver

yh fair enough. If you want a completely universal remote then they are the best. But not everyone wants to spend more money after buying a new receiver.
One question tho, is there any lag at all when using 3rd party remotes?
