Advantages: cophy video to dvd via hard drive Disadvantages: dvd player can break down. Should not need to replace whole machine
I own A eltax dvr - 555 HD from Hughes some 3 years and half years ago and now the
dvd within the machine is not working. Will not play or eject a dvd when you put one in.
The hard drive still works and you can view what is saved on there. Bit of pain when I
was trying to copy videos onto Dvd via the hard drive. Also the cover has run out on it.
If anyone knows of where I could get a replacement dvd for it please help.
Apart from this problem I cannot fault the machine with the size of HD, the future proof
connections, usb connection which may be a way to copy from hd drive to a dvd on the
computer if you have the correct software. ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Eltax DVR-555 HD
Advantages: fantastic 'big', rich sound. Very good price. Disadvantages: quite deep, need to be away from wall
demonstrations of both products (albeit in different shops!), and much to my own astonishment,I opted for the Eltax. I had fully intended on the basis of equal reviews to go for the Mission by virtue of it being from bass-ported not rear like the Eltax. However I couldn't ignore the fact that the Eltax had a considerably superior definition of bass. It was clearer and smoother than the Mission, which was quite bass-heavy and boomy in comparison. The only drawback is that they are both slightly deeper in size than the Mission and rear bass-ported which means they shouldn't be placed directly against the wall.
Notwithstanding this however, they are a seriously class act, can handle 100 watts of power and deliver a depth and quality of sound which, if you're used to compact speakers, will take your breath away. ...
