I am planning to switch from cable TV to Direct TV. What are the choices for HDTV receivers? I have a Pioneer Elite 710 RPTV.


Thanks

RCA DTC 100

Hughes E86

Toshiba DST-3000

Sony HD100

Panasonic (don't know the model)

Mitsubishi HD-400


Coming soon Zenith


I believe the RCA and Sony are compatible with your HDTV. Not sure about the Panasonic.

Remember that the Toshiba, Hughes & Mitusbishi, and don't forget the Phillips, are all the same unit under the skin.


So as of today, you have 4 choices for HDTV DirecTV. The ones above, Sony & Panasonic & RCA.

Thanks for the comprehensice responses. Is there anywhere I can read about the advantages or disadvantages of each? Any recommendations?

use the search feature at the top to see reviews that other members have posted. Just use the brand name or model number.

Some (including me) have experienced Lip Synch problems with the Sony.

This is not helpful. The hs10 yahoo group is not that great, and most of the time the answers are not easily found. I could understand if you gave an answer then said check out this group where i found it but jeese.


I can probably count 20 messages i have seen from in the past 5 days similar to this
