The Amstrad DRX780 is the most recent Sky+HD Digibox to the market. Amstrad is now owned by Sky and therefore this product has gone through much more intense testing than any other manufacturer of Sky+HD Digibox. So far the Amstrad has proven to be a reliable unit, especially compared to previous non HD Amstrad units, and the Thomson Sky HD Digibox. All round this digibox offers good quality and reliability to enjoy the very best of Sky television, both in standard and high-definition.

The Amstrad DRX780 Sky+ HD Digibox design matches the existing HD models, with its dark black curved shape and matching remote. The unit contains the same *300gb capacity hard drive for recording all your favourite programmes with Sky+ (Sky+ requires an active subscription to Sky), allowing you to record approx. 150 hours of digital TV.

*160gb personal space

This brand new latest version Amstrad Sky High Definition Digibox can be used with an existing Sky Subscription card, to benefit from the Sky+ functionality, or subscription HD channels (HD Mix). Alternatively without a card you can still receive all free HD channels, such as BBC HD, Luxe HD and C4 HD (C4 HD currently requires a Sky FTV card). You are under no obligation to take out a subscription, or HD Mix (£9.75 per month) with this purchase, as you are buying from us a non-subsidised digibox.

Please note that the Sky+ record functionality is free, but only available to those with a new or existing Sky subscription. You cannot use the Sky+ record functionality without a subscription, starting from £17.50 per month (this also applies to recording free channels; this is not possible without a subscription to Sky).

- To fully utilise the Sky Plus record functionality, you need to install a Quad LNB and second cable. This will allow you to record one channel whilst watching/recording another, or alternatively record two channels whilst watching something pre-recorded. You can still use the Sky Plus functionality with a single cable, but will be limited to watching the channel you are recording.
