Pros: Execlent picture in HD mode, fast reciever, Stable platform
Cons: Less then prefect picture in non-hd mode - PVR functions need to be improved

This is one of the more expensive HD recivers on the market but one of the most highly supported. The pvr functions do work but not prefectly. Not all usb sticks are compatable and the same goes with the hard drives. The reciver likes to be hard-booted every so often and lockups are common. Works 100% with FTA and ULCLS command and Disc commands.
