Z300 has the best IKS...

Bronze Member Username: GooglespyderPost Number: 47 Registered: Nov-09 | The z300 is available at http://www.efta.us for $179 First off, I'd like to say WOW! for 179 bucks this unit provides an extreme number of features normally only seen in a much higher end and expensive reciever. The z300 is a new and upcoming FTA receiver with IKS ability (Serial to rj45 adapter is included with every unit for no additional charge) as well as PVR ability with a standalone USB harddrive or a USB memory stick. And the unit is also built for full DVB compatibility with almost any provider world wide. My first impression of the unit was admiring how small that it actually was when unpacked. The unit comes with most every cable needed for installation, and the front top edge located USB port made software upgrades and additions very easy and fast. The ethernet functions also extend to your personal home network; allowing easy sharing of media. The IKS setup was also surprisingly easy; it took me about 15 minutes total to set the unit up and start watching TV. I've payed special attention to the IKS performance since I installed the z300. And I'm very pleased to report that it is the most stable IKS solution I've seen to date. During the last 72 hours, I've witnessed both Nfusion and Sonicview having stability problems with their solutions. But not the z300, it has been stable and strong. The menu system on the z300 is very well laid out and makes sense. I was also impressed by the level of control the unit has for picture calibration and OSD (on screen display) options. The z300 also had a few surprises for me as I surfed through the channels, such as the integration of EPG and PVR options into the info panel GUI (graphic user interface) that's visible on every channel. It makes keeping up with channel details and receiver functions more in your face and easy. And naturally the z300 is equipped with component video and digital audio outputs for easy home theater integration. In closing I'd like to add, if you're on a budget and want Dishnet, this is the unit for you. The z300 is available at http://www.efta.us for $179  |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 16807 Registered: Jun-06 | People need a URL to see the channel list independently verified. Everybody is tired of tall claims and poor delivery of TV and freezes. Where is an independent review? |

Bronze Member Username: Cheap_trickPost Number: 82 Registered: Oct-09 | it works very similar to CNX nano 2 but "apparently" its not using CNX's servers they claim to have servers of its own. Go figure...  |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 16808 Registered: Jun-06 | google spyder has posted somethig here which is not in keeping with the reality of things and has not been able to substantiate his/her claims. Just leave it a that. At present we have very good write ups and analysis at www.currentbins.com and we should continue to rely on the testing there as mostly authentic and above all unbiased. Currentbins does not even mention this unit right now. |

Bronze Member Username: GooglespyderPost Number: 54 Registered: Nov-09 | ok, ill prove it...since your all a lil dim....at the bottom of the review on dsscentral i changed it to say "ecoustics.com sucks", ....and yes this unit is from euro (they been here about 5 weeks), and IT DOES work here with its own seperate IKS servers, trust me I dont write bull sh it reviews ... |

Bronze Member Username: DibblydoodaPost Number: 100 Registered: Oct-09 | I'd buy it if it did DVB-S 4:2:0 and 4:2:2, DVB-S2, MPEG-4 SD and HD. Sounds to me like another run of the mill SD box with an ethernet controller slapped on it. |
|
Bronze Member Username: GooglespyderPost Number: 57 Registered: Nov-09 | Tunit is also built for full DVB compatibility with almost any provider world wide!! (quote from review) regardless of what you personaly want...you cant beat this deal on the unit, and considering it has private IKS servers that dont cost additionaly. you wont beat it... theres no additional/ongoing cost for the unit to anyone that buys it...but if you want to use a private IKS of your own, or a company you know of, its fully configurable for all options. |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 16813 Registered: Jun-06 | LK Platinum Member Username: Lklives Posted on Monday, September 17, 2007 - 02:52 pm: "Ecoustics...here where your bandwidth is going...hope u don't mind paying the monthly server bills for this waste...." "This is typical of the very little knowledge of LK about simple things. She mentions bandwidth, and tries to tell everybody that a text message of 1 KB is too long. She has absolutely no knowledge of the size of images that her friend Mr. Bill and Ryerson post - each picture taking up over 10KB. Server Bills - LK should understand that at the level of Ecoustics server bills are often paid on monthly usage and Mr. Bill's posts when viewed often cause a severe strain on the maximum monthly connection allowed. LK could do well to download an item she wants to treply to and find out whether she understands fully the meaning and the context before attempting to replying. Alternatively, she should alter habits. Instead of presuming that each post requires an input from her, instead of presuming that she is the only person with knowledge, instead of presuming that nobody else will reply, she could (if only to retain her sanity a little longer), presume that there are other people with knowledge and ability and willingness to reply, and in general, an answer is not expected of her nor is the topic or the question or the post within her realm of knowledge." |

Gold Member Username: GregrafPost Number: 4007 Registered: Dec-07 | I love it when Nalin searches for LK's threads. Maybe she will learn something of value along the way. Just search "Nalin Nyda is a loser" and you will find 1000 results |
