    Thinking of getting one

    Ive used many receivers, i need a twin tuner, can't afford solo2, it was very good when i used it. Nano2super is what i wanted, its great but no longer for sale. Xtrend et8000 was ok as well but no longer there...

    How does the gigablue compare to these and does anyone know where i can get a nano2super...?

    the Gigablue Quad plus is a very good receiver the only thing that i don't like about it is its Remote Control, the FF - RW - play - pause buttons are to small and hard to use also with it being a universal remote if you press TV like on every other remote to get your channel listings it disables the remote you have to press the FAV button to get your channel listing's, and you have to press the GIGA button to get control back it's a real pain so i use a Harmony 650 instead of the standard remote
    but apart from the remote the Quad + is a cracking Receiver just a shame its let down by it's remote but you might like it

    Looks like he has a small budget if he can't afford a Vu+ Solo 2 (£209) so highly unlikely a new receiver in August/September would be doable.

    If you're open to a second hand Nano2Super, open a thread in the wanted section.
    House move, so have a few boxes I could sell.
