Hiya guys, me and two mates are looking at getting Starview 4 boxes. My question is are they good in East Mids area and if so who are the best to buy off..??

TMC don't do them i am told, so are Wizard, theboxdistribution etc reliable places? or do i need to go further afield?

Have seen some iffy comments about both but hey, we all get a bad experience somewhere sometime don't we..?? Just need directing in the right direction..!?!

Any help or advice would be much appreciated.. cheers..

Apparently Starviews aren't that reliable, I think. Dbox's have been going strong since 1999!(And still working)

Had about 15 starviews 3 and 4s mainly no probs whatsoever with any, but got a d box 2 myself and wouldn't swap it for anything.

If you want something that is v. reliable, go for a dbox. Look how many Eurovox/Starviews you see listed as faulty on auction sites, compared to Dbox's
