Oriel 963 (DVB-T2)

Advantages: Great, easily customizable tuner. Beautiful picture. Metal case. Not heated. Intuitive menu. Sensitive tuner.

Disadvantages: Those are NO!

Comment: I read a lot of tests, comparisons and reviews. I decided to stay on this model. Not how much I regret. Chose the best. I want to immediately say about the "SOAP" image. Which is supposed to be present on this tuner. I have it NO. Very clear picture. Even with the clarity on the TV 50%. Now about the equipment itself: TV "Samsung 28" series 4 HD LED UE28F4000AW, HDMI Cable Philips SWV3430S / 10 1.0 meter, tuner Oriei 963, antenna wave channel (UHF) 11 elements (external) passive. The direction to Ostankino (44 km.) The strength and quality of the signal according to (tuner Oriel 963) 99%. Even prepared the Mast amplifier AB 011 "TERRA" UHF (DVB-T2). But he was not needed. After watching TV in a digital DVB-T2 signal. For myself I decided that in the Moscow region, plates like "THREE COLOR" are not needed. Good luck to everyone in choosing a tuner. I hope my experience and review will help someone.

Comment: recommend. not heated

Advantages: Iron case, pleasant-looking remote, quick menu, good quality pictures

Comment: In comparison with other, younger models, the oriel receivers are a great looking and functional console, as well as a screen with the current time. The price is quite adequate in comparison with other receivers.

Advantages: Excellent reception quality. With the remote tuner volume is regulated. On the remote there is a separate button to switch to usb. When you click on the "ok" button, the entire list of channels is displayed, you can go to another channel by its name. Elegant remote. In standby mode, the clock is displayed, which is configured automatically, without your participation.

Disadvantages: Slightly "whistles", but from 4 meters is no longer audible, does not interfere with sleep. Did not play the video with the .mov extension (most of my home videos). The first tuner refused to obey the remote, not having time to tune in to the channel. The problem was solved by replacing.

Comment: Great model. He took to give, because all dmv channels of analog tv are received with noise and interference. Cottage at the intersection of the 1st betonka and Volokolamki, in a valley. Antenna - active grid. This tuner receives all channels in excellent quality.

Advantages: A wonderful console, with fast channel switching, high sensitivity, a simple and accessible menu, with a clear image, stylish design, metal body, beautiful remote control, the console does not heat up very much during work.

Disadvantages: The media player does not play movies with an ordinary stereo track (PCM) although this option is indicated in the passport. We hope that in the software update, the developers will eliminate this malfunction. And then you can safely put 5

Advantages: Excellent prefix, channels switches quickly. An ubiquitous player-hard disk for 500 gigs reproduces without problems.

Disadvantages: Not minuses, but cavils - lightly squeaks in standby mode, which at night, in silence, can strain a little). The menu in the part of the EPG-EPG-can not view the program guide without changing the channels, the menu is better in this regard

Comment: For 4 months of using glitches and heating I do not observe, it works every day, reception is 99%, I have something to compare with globo 100 and cascade 2101. I recommend oriel 963, a decent device.

Advantages: Confident reception of all channels to the usual indoor antenna on the outskirts of the city. Quick search without problems. Convenient, powerful remote with standard AAA batteries. Specially bought this model after it was compared with the most popular, appropriate for the price and read the reviews. Not wrong.

Disadvantages: I would like to still, the remote was even a little bigger, although it is already larger than its counterparts. Menu media player could make it easier.

Comment: Great picture quality, great recording on a flash drive. Supports external media up to 500 GB. A 2-hour film will be approximately 6 GB in size after recording. View records on a computer with Windows 7 - no problem.

Advantages: Metallich. the case is not heated, the most convenient remote control in the model range of Oriel consoles, a good tuner, good workmanship, the simultaneous presence of SCART and 3RSA outputs, the presence of a display with a clock on the front panel.

Disadvantages: As a media player - weak. It does not read all video formats. According to this indicator, it is inferior to the model "Oriel 910", which reproduces a much larger number of video formats. Slightly noticeable squeaking inside the case of the device, included in the socket. But in three steps he is no longer audible, so he does not bother. Lack of connecting cables included.

Comment: As a digital tuner - the best in the entire line of Oriel. In the city even receives a reflected signal on a homemade UHF antenna from a wire. At 30 km from the city, the antenna requires a little more precise tuning, but still it catches the signal without problems. Work at a greater distance from the repeater has not yet verified. Stocked such prefixes with many of his friends. Everyone was very pleased. 8 pieces of such tuners have already passed through my hands. No marriage yet. As for the possibility of recording TV shows via USB, I confess that I have not tried it yet, because there was no need.
If this model had a more powerful and omnivorous media player (at least like Oriel-910), then it would be possible to rate 5+.
And if Oriel still released a model with a VGA output (for a computer monitor), they could have a monument erected during their lifetime.

Advantages: Yesterday I purchased Oriel 963. I tuned to 20 digital channels in automatic mode. The picture quality on the TV is excellent. Funke powered external antenna

Disadvantages: Did not reveal

Comment: The device is executed in the metal case and quite qualitatively. In off mode, it shows time.

Advantages: At weak signal levels (~ 40%), the quality is 75-80%. AC3 codec.

Disadvantages: I did not find

Comment: I looked at it while I installed it, but judging by the fact that the owners of the equipment have not called me for 1 month after installation, everything is OK!
