Sony SATHD300 DIRECTV HD Receiver w/ Dolby Digital Passthrough & Universal Remote Commander
The best choice if you own other Sony gear
I don't disagree with some of the other complaints, but the problems are, in my opinion, overshadowed by the advantages if you own a Sony TV and receiver. The remote works perfectly with my HDTV monitor and receiver. I have used HD DirecTV receivers from Samsung and Hughes and found them lacking.
