Philips DTR-5520 review

 

Designed in conjunction with Pace, this set-top box can certainly perform, but there's no denying that others are worth the extra cash

Appealing looks, performance and build ; price

A little light on the feature front ; picture and sound quality can be bettered ; no DD 5.1

If the price takes your fancy, this is a solid enough proposition

Philips DTR5520

 

This product doesn't have any thing that I would class as good. It is a basic HD receiver, nothing special in any way. It really isn't value for money

The control buttons are not in the user friendly. Th main large centre button ypu would expect to reveal the EPG is actually the record button which drives you made when you constantly press it by accident.
