First impressions are its a nice upgrade from my extrend et9000. Feels a lot more responsive and looks nice with the Vix Blue hd skin.
Remote control is on the small side and I can see why some dont like it due to the buttons being quite close to each other but its not a deal breaker at all.
Might look into a Harmony 650 remote because it is something I have thought about buying for awhile to control my various boxes. Anybody here got experience with it and is it reasonable to setup for the mutant ?

I think the xtrend et 10000 is better due to a universal quality remote and the fact it can take both size hardrives. Plus it looks nicer too

The vu duo 2 is technically not a quad tuner tho is it?

Only comes as a twin out of the box but can easily fit another Twin tuner to turn it into a Quad tuner receiver. WoS do offer this service or you can buy a twiner Vu+ tuner and fit it yourself, very easy to install.

but i thought it has only 3 slots.
Can you have 2 satellite tuners and two cable tuners like you can on the mut@nt or xtrend?

Yeah you can have a twin hybrid cable tuner so could do 2x satellite and 2x cable or if you want 4x satellite you just get a twin satellite tuner.

Twin hybrid cable tuner isn't listed on WoS to buy but is an option to add when buying a Vu+ Duo2. Could always ring/email Stef at WoS and enquire.

oh i thought that twin hybrid thingy was only for vu solo 4k box.
I dont even know how that twin hybrid works because you need one tuner to loop to another cable tuner without splitting the feed

the twin hybrid has only one input. the splitter is within the tuner.

it is compatible with most Vu receivers with a tuner slot.

Gigablue has a twin hybrid tuner module, but on the Ultra UE supports this tuner module.
