    I wouldn't expect any difference, but viewing images is such a personal experience, that I would just say try both and make a choice based on what you see.

    .........FBC Tuners:
    ------------------> DUR-Line DCR 5-1-8-L4 Multiswitch to 1.5M dish(28.2E)
    ------------------> Spaun SUS 5581/33 NFA Multiswitch to 80 cm dish(19.2E)
    .......................> FBC & DVB-S2X into 90cm dish (27.5W) Opticum robust Unicable LNB
    AX HD61, Edision Osmio 4K+, Zgemma H9Combo, Octagon SF8008 , gbtrio4k, h9se using Legacy ports on multiswitches

    If you want something with similar speed or faster than the GB Quad, look at the Edision OS Mega: https://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk...os-mega-osmega

    It can also depend on which TV is being used and whether the box or the TV is doing the up-scaling etc. Most TV come with default settings more suited to shop demonstrations rather than a real world living room environment and just adjusting the TVs settings can make a big difference - usually by turning OFF (or at least toning down) the manufactures features that claim to give a better picture quality.

    Consider also that the broadcasters are trying to squeeze more and more content into the same bandwidth and on most of the lesser TV channels the picture is so filtered and compressed that no amount of processing in the receiver is going to restore the quality back to the picture. A lot of picture processing in these boxes is performed in hardware so the speed of the processor is more likely to effect how long it takes to change channels, search for timer programs etc. rather than effecting broadcast picture quality.
