Opinion No. 1

By Jose Mari Benitez from London [

Pros:	Pros: Very good picture & sound,Fast channel switching,Internal positioner.
Cons:	Cons: Awful remote,Difficult to set up,Terrible menus.
Points: Perform : 9 Features: 3 Value/dosh: 1 Overall: 4 pts	The Echostar 2500IP is a smart looking receiver with very good picture quality and sound but I found the whole process of finding channels very painful.When the receiver searches for channels automatically It misses a huge amount of channels that are being transmitted and there is no manual tuning to find the channels you do want.The menu system looks awful and I felt that there should have been far more options available to the user along with much better graphics.The instruction manual Is also awful and not much use at all.My conclusion is that even though the picture quality and sound are both excellent the fact that there were so many omissions makes this a receiver one to avoid at all cost's.
	Jose Mari paid (approx.) €430 for the receiver
