It’s modern styling and great features, including fast channel change and a sensitive tuner to pick up even the weakest signals makes this the new bench-mark in Sky receivers.
The Thomson Digibox has a very sensitive tuner and is an ideal choice for the weaker signal areas.

Good reliable box.
Rating: 5 / 5
This is a good product which, most of the time, does what it says on the box. However, as with all Sky and Sky+ boxes I have, it is also pretty tedious when it fails and has to be re-set in the middle of a programme by unplugging it from the mains and following the instructions in the book – in itself an indication that Sky knows there is a reliability problem with their hardware and associated software. This is not a problem with Humax equipment!
