Eurovox Max V Compatibility Problem.

Hi

I am wanting to purchase one of these receivers but my current provider is SKY. However I receive my internet broadband connection from virgin media which is a cable provider.

What I want to know is can I connect the Eurovox to the Broadband box that comes into my home and receive the free channels or do I have to have a cable box?

Please help me make the correct decision.

Yes you can.

 

Could you explain how I would connect it to my broadband?

I am novice to all this so any help would be much appreciated.

Thank

 

You need a splitter from your coax BB connection and then connect the other feed to the Eurovox.

 

Scouser thanks for the info. From your comments are you saying that the TV signal from Virgin Media is being transmitted down the BB cable ? This means I will be able to ditch my Sky Box ( wish they did a HD box like this as I have just purchased a 50" Samsung HDTV

I have the opportunity to buy a Eurovox Max V 2008 for £109.00 would you recommend getting one also is their anyway oanyone can detect the use of these boxes?

Thank you once again for all your help.

As long as you have a VM connection which is coaxial then yes you can use it as BB and TV are transmitted on the same line. And no a EV cannot be detected as it has no talkback facilty for obvious reasons.
