Hi
I am looking to upgrade from my dm800se. I only need 1 sat tuner but 2 could be good. Would like to lots of options of images.
A good sensitive tuner. Good plugin support
Don't use 4k but may be good for future

Best value for money box would be Vu+Zero - very stable with openVIX and lots of plugins. If you want to play around a lot, then you should consider receiver with more powerful CPU. I own both Zero and Solo4k - in my use, Zero is doing everything what Solo 4k does, except 4K, but in my opinion 4K enigma 2 boxes do not make any sense because you cannot watch premium content at the moment and probably in near future as well using softcams.
Best value for money we'd say the Formuler F4 Turbo, great package with loads of accessories and excellent Quality:
Formuler F4 Turbo, lots of image support. OpenViX, OpenATV, OpenPLi + more..

VU+ Uno SE 4K
I recomend the Vu+ Solo2 its a good fast stable reciver for a good price. Install OpenBlackhole in the flash and mount a usb stick
Then use OpenMultiboot and test your way trough images. There are many good images for this reciver.
It also have internal HDD several usb ports, 2 Common interface and 2 softcam slots
There are also several images for this reciver with support for CI+ still out there
4K reciver there is is only one choice, go for the Vu+Uno4kSE but as written above no 4K channels to watch about the free channels and some demo
Yes there is Viasat UltraHD and a Canal+ UHD but none of them sends 24/7
Use your money on an HD reciver for now and the 3 choices above is very good budget recivers
VU+ Solo2 is now a discontinued product.
Its sad to here that Solo2 is discontinued :( but you have such a good offers on other stb that there are no problem to find a simular stable stb among them.
VU+ Solo2 is now a discontinued product.
Is the mut@nt hd51 good quality?
Where is it made?

the mutant is a great box and powerful, slightly better than the solo 2. I have the mutant 4k and sf4008 4k. both are great, the sf looks and feels better than the mutant, but the mutant for me , seems a more solid box. you cant go wrong with the mutant.

Xtrend ET8500 - Poor Video Quality
VU+ Solo Se V2 (no internal HDD facility) - Limited expansion
UHD 4K Receivers
VU+ Zero 4K - No HDD, entry model, limited tuners
VU+ Uno SE 4K - A bit expensive
Mutant HD51 - Not the best remote / build quality
If budget is a factor then consider the Formuler F1. It doesn't have internal HDD space but can accommodate 3 tuners and for circa £80 its very cheap for what it is. It will run Open Pli, Vix, ATV
Alternatively consider the Tiviar Alpha Plus. It has internal HDD space, nicer remote and comes with 3 tuners for £99 it's also a bargain. It's recently been converted to E2 and will run Vix but OpenATV is highly recommended for this.
Personally I wouldn't advise getting too hung up or blowing the budget on any 4k receiver at the moment. There simply isn't enough material out there and you maybe disappointed

In my opinion Mut@nt HD51 is the best option with best price and specs and speed. I am using it since 11 months. No problem at all.
Mutant HD51 Powervu via stream relay or direct tune ?
the best for the value now is vu+zero 4k as it supports both 265hevc and multistream the most of stb in market doesn't support these tech, but why did I mention them ?? well, if y have a good IPTV subscription now top level iptv providers offer tv channels with 265.h tech instead of 264.H, to watch a 1080p channel with 264H y need atleast 12mb/s stable cnx but with 265H y only need 4MB/s cnx to watch with no freez at all ... and for multistream technology VU+ZERO 4K comes with the new generation of tuner DVBS2/2X instead of DVBS2 tuner .. the dvbs2X tuner supports multistream technology witch you can catch the hidden frequencies in my satellites such as french and italian DTT channels at Eutelsat W5 thats something other stbs can never dream of and all the channels are for free except mediaset premium package
