Best FTA Receiver

Best FTA Receiver
Best FTA Receiver

We have compiles a list of the best FTA receiver available on the market. It's a hard thing to choose when it come to buy an FTA receiver so we have made tables that will certainly help you making the right decision. Also we have the largest selection then any other retailer and have the best prices over the internet and in-store. When you buy from us, you are 100% covered against clones or we refund your money back ! We are authorized for all the brand we sell on our website.

The Standard STB's

Choosing a receiver depend only on what you really looking for and what price you are willing to pay, The first Choice we suggest it's the Kbox Prodigy. The Prodigy is very easy to setup for first time FTA users, Quality image and sound exceptional, Sleek design Universal Remote control, front USB port and available in Black. The Samsung™ Tuner will bring you a crystal clear picture, the hardware is made with only High Quality Parts, Powerful Conexant™ Virgo processor back up with 32MB ram, this make the fastest Standard STB on the market. Kbox always been strong in the industry in regards of Quality Hardware and Picture quality and no one yet as been able to beat them. You can now load the new Factory file from the manufacturer website and get the Weather Forecast ! Our second choice is the Conaxsat Nano2, front USB port with a Sleek design remote control. Can also become a PVR by loading the manufacturer factory file. This receiver is really one of the best in it's class, made in Korea with very high engineering, you will be very please with this receiver, little harder to setup compare to the Kbox Prodigy but once you get it to work, you won't regret your choice. The closest runner up is the Viewsat Ultra V3,  Excellent receiver with a Good Quality hardware with also a very Good Quality Picture and Sound. It's a very powerful receiver with also a Conexant™ processor and 32mb of RAM, the only thing about this receiver is the price versus a Kbox, very expensive but for the Viewsat lover's, it's an excellent receiver. If you still want to enjoy a Viewsat without having to pay the high price, the Viewsat Ultra Lite is a nice little receiver, very small in size with front USB port, you wont be able to enjoy the Video Component output and Optical output like the Ultra V2 but it's a Viewsat at a Fraction of the cost of the Ultra V2. The Captiveworks 700S is a great unit for the price, you can't go wrong. The USB port is located at the front and come in Black or Silver, it's not the most powerful receiver but you will like the easy setup and nice OSD and universal remote control. The nFusion Solaris is a great little receiver but need many improvement in regard of Quality picture, Sound Quality and hardware. The remote control also need to be work on and it is a little expensive, but you get an Ethernet connection that turn this receiver PVR ready. It send the signal to your PC and you can use the hard drive of your PC to record ! That's an amazing feature.  Another STB without all the gizmo is the Captiveworks 650S, make a great second receiver in the house also, available in Black or Silver. Use the same interface as the 700S.

The PVR STB's

A PVR " Personal Video Recorder " receiver means it is capable of sending an audio/video files to an external storage memory like a Hard Drive or USB Drive. It connects to the USB port and can be controlled by the receiver. The Sonicview Premier and Sonicview Elite,  exact same receiver except the Elite have Dual tuner ( Watch a channel while recording another ) and have 3 USB ports. The Premier have 2 USB ports, 1 at the front and 1 at the back. They also use a Conexant™ processor and excellent harware. The Captiveworks 800S is an excellent receiver for the price, the only disadvantage of this receiver is that it only as 1 USB port in the back, you will love the easy setup of this receiver and especially the price !  Most affordable PVR ready FTA receiver right now on the market. Also come in Black or Silver color and offer an excellent manufacturer warranty so buy with confidence. Viewsat Pro didn't really impress us but it is still a good receiver. Easy to setup but PVR work a little erratic, very sensitive on the kind of hard drive you will use, beside of this it offer a Great Quality picture and a Clear Sound.

The HD STB's

First before we start talking about each receiver, we will explain you how to get HD Channels via an FTA receiver. All FTA HD receiver comes with an ATSC tuner, you can connect a UHF antenna to it and get HDTV channels via OTA. we have a section on our site that explain all details of OTA in the information section. AT this moment there is only HD channels via Satellite on a C-Band Dish transmitting DVB-S2. In order to get those HD channels on C-Band you will need an 8PSK Tuner, these channels are Free To Air and require no subscription and are fully legal to get as they are unencrypted.

Currently identified free-to-air services:

  • G26 @ 93°West, C-Band, 10ft (3m) antenna required
    • 3820 H 29124 Equity Mux (25 Channels)
  • G14 @ 125°West, C-Band, 6ft (2m) antenna required
    • 4060 V 30000, NBC Universal (3 Channels)
    • 4080 H 30000, CNBC HD+ (1 Channel)

One should first maximize a few signals on this satellite. Two good frequencies to use are 3375 H 4444 3/4  Nebraska NET and 4080 V 32360 3/4 CBS feed in HD .

The Viewsat MAXHD. These two are the best receivers in all aspect for HD, easy setup, Best Quality pictures in 1080i, HDMI output, incredible sound and many hot feature. Connect an external Hard Drive and record your favourite local HD channel, these receivers are perfect for the people that are new in FTA HD. Extremely Powerful processor that can clock over 300Mhz with 128mb of RAM.  But the Captiveworks 4000HD is the king of the HD's, why we didn't put it in first place it is because it is very hard to setup and use but when you know how to use it, it kick all other receiver out of the race. It's the only receiver that use Linux as the operating system, you can Watch HD Channel, Surf on the net, play DVD, it's a Multimedia system ! It use a AMD processor with a ASUS motherboard, it is basically a computer, add a Wireless keyboard and enjoy hours of fun ! Sonicview 8000HD is the receiver to buy if you are a Sonicview fan,  one of the best motherboard use inside in combination of a powerful Main Processor. The Version 2 Include a Cooling Fan with 2 USB port. The nFusion Nuvenio, another excellent HD receiver but also a little hard to setup, Quality picture is not as Good as Coolsat or Viewsat but overall a good receiver. Nice looking with a excellent universal remote control, come also with an Ethernet port like the Nova to use your PC for recording, 2 USB Port and very good looking unit.
