  • Hello, can anyone please suggest good box with following requirements:

    • Sensitive tuner
    • DVB-S2X
    • ARM quad core processor
    • UHD/4K
    • Built-in WiFi
    • Card reader
    • CI+ slot

    I do wish not spend too much, so cheaper the better.


    TIA! :smiling:

  • Look at the Boardsponsor Info there was a very good and cheap Box from Amiko HD51 about 60 Pound that is cheap and good . If you look there for a Image Pur-E2 has one

    Thanks for the suggestion, it does not seem to be ARM quad core processor and built-in WiFi. I'll consider it though. How is the tuner sensitivity and image support from the manufacturer?

  • For that Money everything is OK , If you need better Hardware then look for the next level at Zgemma Boxes H9twin ore H7 are really great supportet Boxes also the Edision Mio all OK But then the price is between 100 -150 €

  • I've shortlisted following:


    Amiko Viper 4K51: cheap, but no ARM quad core processor and built-in WiFi, manufacturer/community support?

    Zgemma H9 Twin 4K: everything fits but, tuner sensitivity?

    Edision OS mio 4K: good tuner sensitivity albeit expensive but only dual core ARM, no CI slot, unnecessary T2/C tuner


    I'm inclined towards Zgemma H9 Twin 4K if tuner sensitivity is good. Final thoughts? world-of-satellite.co.uk

  • The H9 Twin is a very good Receiver . I have a combo here same but a cable tuner and a sat sat tuner . very good supportet manufactures make a good job . we have a very nice image for it and full CI+ support .

  • I'm not sure what you expect from the tuner? I also build settings for the Pur team and can't claim to have noticed a difference in the tuner compared to the AXHD 51 or H9 Combo. Both receive the same amount of stations and take a good picture


    The Edision OS mio 4K is the better Box between H9 Twin but the prize is not the same .it would be unfair to put them in direct comparison .

    But both a very good receiver if you want the better one you have to pay more thats it

    Which receivers are among the best for tuner sensitivity if budget is not a problem? I plan to hunt the satellites with low signal in my area.

    What satellites exactly? What exaclty is your satellite dish setup?

  • What satellites exactly? What exaclty is your satellite dish setup?

    A 4 feet offset dish with Inverto Black Ultra and a 6 feet prime focus dish for C-band. Do receiver sensitivities differ too much?

    If i'm honest I normally try to steer clear recommending receivers based on sensitity. Most have different expectations and so much variation on locations, dish setup etc...


    Enthusiasts like yourself have been happy with the Edision OS Mio 4k, OS Mio+ 4K, Octagon SF8008, Amiko Viper 4K, Gigablue UHD Trio 4K.
