Cheap E2 box

As previously stated though the nBox units are good for the money but at the end of the day they are not a proper E2 box as it does not use a MIPS CPU, plus it also has capacitor issues.

I cannot comment on the E3 box but to be honest its spec doesn't seem too bad at all. Can't seem to find much in the way of a UK supplier though.

Faza mate i'm not 100% sure what you are trying to say my friend. I have owned both BSLA and BSKA boxes and like i said they aren't bad boxes for the money, infact they are bang on for what they cost, although as i have stated many times before Enigma2s native use is with a MIPS cpu not an STi one. The image designed to run on MIPS has to be reverse engineered/modified to run on an STi chipset so its always going to contain bugs until its totally written from the ground upwards, plus a lot of plugins that work fine on a MIPS box don't work when run under an Sti chipset. In my mind that doesn't make it a proper E2 box.

As for the capacitor issue, its not something my BSKA nbox has suffered from but it does seem to be the general consensus with these boxes. I like to play with my boxes as it keeps the hobby interesting. I have owned several STi based boxes and none of them have met the same expectations as both of my Gigablue boxes or my Dreambox, none of which i would class as a top rate MIPS box as they are all getting on a bit now.

At the end of the day its personal preference, i just don't rate the STi based boxes as i don't think they are in the same league as a MIPS based box.
