After many years of great service from my trusty humax.I would like to upgrade to hd receiver.I am not in to card sharing.Please adivce which receiver will be best for me.I would like to be future proof.

no such thing as future proof. but any one of 3 comes to mind, az premium is getting better slowly, dm800 or clone, lot of people like them even if u can cook eggs on them. new vu+ seems to be comeing along fine and looking at treads it will record 4 channels at once. but chice is yours. just my thoughts.

I love my tm6900hd super. You don't have to fiddle with it too much; It seems well supported and the picture quality of both sd (upscaled) and HD is excellent.

I agree with Joany I have a TM6900HD Supercombo and a SLy HD box.
HD and SD on both is excellent, I cant tell them apart. The Sly hard disc recording is brrilliant though. Just go to the programme you want to record on the 7 day EPG and press record. Thats it!!
I have a Maxtor 500,Gig for the TM, very temperamental.

I found Seagate and Western Digital AV series hard disks to be the best for digital recording as they are quite, fast and runs cool .

Mvision HD200.
A couple of months ago I decided to get a "better" receiver, so I bought a TM6800 super. It's a good machine, but was no better that my Mvision, in fact wouldn't do some things my Mvison would, so I sent it back.

I got the 6800HD
The Picture quality is better than my subbed sly box, although the sound seems a bit quiet. - Due to the price this is a good starter HD box (ABOUT £140), but if you want something more long term may not be ideal.
