Best Receiver I have ever Used. Period! HDTV for (OTA)Over The Air reception is Stunning with Generic HDTV antenna. Menu's are a breeze and setup is required. Satellite HD picture and Sound Quality* IMO are the best of all FTA boxes out there today. 99% of any of those that claim to be better usually do not include the ATSC type OTA HDTV tuner. Options for Dolby Digital and/or PCM with optical output make Movie's more enjoyable and just listening to a Music Channel with a screensaver on is pretty Awesome. :-p If there is one(2) Con on this Product is no built-in Ethernet or WiFi . Great Product, I have had mine for 4-5 years. also worth noting is they are known to have minor power supply issues but there's allot of support for repairs and such.
I think the picture quality is the best ever made for a FTA-receiver. They don't make them like this sonic-view any more. It's highly recommended. Be good.

I was skeptical at first sending my stuff into the unknown but it was well worth it. He did a great job at repairing 2 of my sv8000hd power supplies. They were like new and it was fixed very fast. Very impressed with the service and quality of the work. I can solder myself but not like this, this mans a pro. The led on the front panel was brighter as well after the repair plus he added a socket to plug my fans into. Thanks again

This is by far the best HD unit you can get. It has ATSC tuner so you can connect Regular HD bunny ears you buy at the store and get all your local Channel its perfect MPEG2 1080i HD!.. Now comcast and dish network claim they give you HD local channels and they claim HD but they are MPEG4 that means its more compressed and they charge you for them channels.... So why not save $ and get a Sonicview 8000 HD and use the ATSC TUNER also you can use it to get many channels that other companies charge you big $. Yous simply get a DISH and a motor and the channels you can get 100% FREE is staggering. Just about any channel that comcast or DTV or dish offers is out there FREE with proper dish and motor to aim at the correct satellite in space Its called TRUE FREE TO AIR on the bottom some people say that is not working it is working fine with out problem don't know what they saying is working fine with out any problems since i got itRead full review

Owned this for over a year now. Great HD satellite receiver. Initial ran a bit hot but did the fan modifications (easily found on the web and simply to do) Tried some of the newer HD receivers but apparently they don't make 'em like they use to. Far superior picture quality. Very happy and would purchase this again.
This is by far the best HD unit you can get. Better than your local cable providers HD box. HD quality is much cleaner. Not only does it do satellites but it does over the air signals, plug in your antenna and scan away. Picture Quality:10 Audio Quality: 10... It also has HDMI out and optical out.
This fan does not make a difference, it is still making a lot of noise, for the price i think i got rip off. Sorry but that is the truth.

I purchased the Sonicview 8000 used at a very attractive price. These units are no longer manufactured, therefore only used or parts only units are available. I have previous experience with this receiver that is why I purchased a second unit. If you are getting into FTA this is a good choice.
This is an excellent fta receiver. Once I understood the basic setting up of the unit, I found it easier to use than previous receivers. Unfortunately the Sonicview company is no longer marketing certain accessories and these accessories are only available on ebay at high prices.
