Ive read a few review's mostly of people that have traded there old TM in for a £50 or £100 discount, If I am right the tm twin costs around £260 quid, when you can get a xtrend for around £300.
I am not slating the tm twin some people have said there as good as vu-du etc but I understand there's no black hole no pli , IQ might have turned a corner I understand they have had some helpers.
I still would weigh up my options to be honest !!!

Looks like the Xtrend ET9000 are a bit hard to get hold of at the minute cheapest uk seller I can find is £320, seven month ago they could be had for £299. The ET9200 silver line is the same price.
People on other forums are saying the TM-twin is just a cheap extrend not sure about that but the xtrend does use vix images and are a quality box made in germany as far as I am aware.
I might be wrong on this but have a google.
It is a good box barring the timed recording not being 100% reliable.
OpenPLI 3.0 works on it and has been solid for a while. It is not officially supported though. TM have been given ultimatum to provide required files.
There are offers for £249 including HDD and postage. Can't post as against rules.
If you are undecided, the Solo 2 is £310.

It has but as I'm on a communal dish and I'm unable to add a third feed I need that loop to go into another room so I can watch the footy whilst the mrs watches something else. But I also want the option to be able to watch something whilst recording another
2T does not have a loop out.
You are aware that you will be restricted on the "looped" output if tuner A is being used. Not all the channels will be available. Not sure if you are restricted to TP or quadrant. Not an issue if main receiver is using Tuner B.

No need for correction.

Are you in high rise flat's are something ? Is there no chance of you adding your own dish on a balcony or something just a thought.
if you set the priority tuner as tuner B, then youll be able to use the loop out of tuner A with no problems (as noted, apart from when recording). another thing youll be able to do, is stream a different channel to your laptop / tablet while a channel is being watched on the main TV
