There's no comparison. The SV Elite is a much better box with multiple USB ports, dual tuner PVR, and just better all around quality and features. The Ultra is decent but not in the same league as the Elite.

Ultra is better but dont have dual tuner, support is the best since 8 month.

I suggest you to buy 2 viewsat Ultra Lite, or better a viewsat Ultra Lite and a Captivework 650S 0r 700S.

With it you are on the top and you can listen 2 channels on PIP TV and record

I own BOTH , the Elite and the Ultra, believe me the Elite is a much better receiver and has better software support as well. Its a dual tuner with PIP too.

SONICVIEW SV-360 Elite Dual Tuner. Let me repeat this again, yes is TRUE Dual 2 Tuner, this will allow you to view 2 different program on any different satellite/TP (not limited to same satellite and TP). Not just that, you can also View and record 2 different program/record 2 different program all at the sametime, and plus more.

Here is the bonus guys, 360 Elite is capable to playback other video formats with quick conversion (using small video converter sw) without have to pay extra bucks to purchase another box.

sada,stay out of my business. Keep trying to figure out your nfusion, and haji channels.

I didn't bother you , but you instigated this, so STFU, don't tell me what or what I should NOT be posting, and mind your own business.

You people are like little kids, NOT knowing anything about your own things and worried about what others are doing.
