OPTIONS AVAILABLE FOR SELECTION AT CHECKOUT

"The HDR-1000S is the best Freesat box we've tested. It's a pleasure to use, and picture and sound rule supreme." What Hi-Fi Sound & Vision magazine, tested at £280.

Now with 'free time', the Humax HDR-1000S makes freesat even more appealing.


G2 VERSION NOW WITH FREE TIME

The second generation of freesat now comes with a smart new TV guide called 'free time'. Not only is this faster than ever but it also allows you to move backwards through programmes that you might have missed. Far easier than using a separate catch-up TV application, free time integrates past TV programmes with the programme guide for truly smart TV. In addition to this, 'free time' also offers a Now & Next facility for easy viewing of current and soon to-air programmes plus a Showcase feature for suggestions. Should you prefer, then on-demand TV apps from both the BBC iPlayer and ITV are also included.

ALL THE BENEFITS OF FREESAT+

Freesat+ is a subscription free, digital TV service that you can connect to an existing satellite dish - with no monthly payments! Just like other free-to-air services, you'll receive HD TV channels and services that make the most of HD Ready TVs. With up to 5 times the picture detail, HD TV images offer stunning realism, whatever the genre. The built-in HDD system also lets you pause and rewind live TV! It doesn't stop there, either. Twin TV tuners mean that you can record 2 channels at the same time or watch one program whilst recording another. (Dual LNB satellite feed required, ask about installation).

500GB EQUALS 250 HOURS OF STORED TV

With a hefty 500GB hard drive built-in, the HDR-1000S can store 250 hours of standard TV recordings or 125 hours of HD TV, making it ideal for storing and watching your favourite shows again - even if it's too late for catch-up TV.

USB AND OPTIONAL WI-FI

With the USB port you can connect a media player or external hard drive and watch stored video on your TV. By using a separately available dongle you can also connect to your network hub via wi-fi (an Ethernet connection is standard).

CONNECT UP WITH A FULL HOME CINEMA SYSTEM

The Humax HDR-1000S comes with a wide range of connections, making it ideal to connect up to a full home cinema system. In addition to the HDMI, SCART and Ethernet connections, the box comes with both optical and RCA phono audio outputs. This lets you connect up pretty much any hi-fi or home cinema system for high definition sound to match the picture.

Now with 'free time' flexibility, subscription-free, dish TV has never been so tempting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by everything i expected and a little bit more got fed up of paying sky contract prices and looked at what we actually watch, ok we have lost a few channels with sport being a big one but over a couple of years will save a large amount of money. picture quality is superb and all the features are easy to use overall very pleased 17 June 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by BEST OF THE BEST After countless hours of research,I finally decided to buy this humax. I have not been disappointed. Why pay a monthly fee, when this box will do everything for a one off fee.I ordered the box and it duly arrived the day after,a faultless transaction. I would definately reccomend the box and trader to anyone,dont hesitate go for it. 21 May 2013
