I'm writing this review for people like me, people who just tend to be a little skeptical about the stuff that gets rave reviews from absolutely everybody. As you scan through the list of review titles on this topic, you may surmise that a bunch...
Pros: Great programming easy to setup with professional assitance. Cons: You need a direct view of southern sky. Storms cut of programming.
This system has to be one of the best satellite systems out on the market.Please note I don't own this system but I know about it from seeing it used at differnt places. Also I am not affilated with Direct T.V. Please don't hold me liable if the info...
Pros: picture quality, channel selections, music channels, pay per view options, sports packages, Cons: installation, loss of local channels.
When my wife and I first moved into our house, we naturally assume that we would use the cable system provided by our local carrier. When we looked into the price and how many channels we actually received, we decided to see what satelite TV could...
Pros: So much to choose from, get great picture and sound. Cons: bad weather can block out the signal
We got the Hughes directv satellite dish and receiver because I got sick and tired of our cable company (Mediacom) always jacking up the price and giving us stupid channels that I don't think anyone would watch. I went to the yellow pages in our local...
Pros: Much cheaper than cable, wider selection of channels Cons: Lack Of Local channels
When the price of regular basic cable in my town started to approach $50 a month, I knew I had to do something. I had always seen satellite ads and had friends with "the dish" but for some reason was always a bit leery. I would flirt with it and let ...
Pros: Low Cost, Tons of Channels Cons: Hard to get support, two TVs costs extra.
If you're debating whether to get a sattelite or not, debate no longer.
I couldn't see myself spending more for TV than I was. I was up to $52 a month, and just after I cancelled cable it would have gone to $55. This was without any premium...
Pros: lots of channels Cons: hard to install if you dont know what your doing
We bought our DirectTV satellite becuase we were sick of the run around we were getting from our cable company, they were calling us every three to six months wanting to change our equipment becuase of one reason or the next, always wanting us to upgrade...
Pros: Graphic channel Guide, Fav. list, Cons: The same as every other sat sys. Multiple dishes for multiple TV's
Haven't heard of the name Hughes? So you're gettin the RCA, Because they make TV's. Well, Hughes makes the satellite systems that Direct TV is broadcast on. They Knew that the average consumer didn't know their name so they signed a contract letting RCA...
We received the Hughes Satellite for Christmas from our kids. It was a wonderful gift and we really are enjoying it alot. Our reception is great and have had very few problems. Installing it was fairly easy for us .
Pros: Easy to install, flawless operation, smooth design Cons: Cost of professional installation is too high
I recieved this satellite system as a gift...Unfortunately I am not a handy man type so I had it installed professionally. It took about 15 minute to have installed and was operational in another 5. It was the easiest thing in the world to operate and...
Pros: More channels for less money Cons: a storm can disrupt the signal
Okay, here's the real deal. The dish is good, but at $129, you're getting robbed. Sure, you could go to any electronics shop and pick it up for that price. I'm not an affiliate for Blockbuster Video at all, but the honest truth is, you can get a...
Pros: This is a very reliable system in every aspect Cons: there are no "cons" with this system
I am a professional installer and this system will please even the picky of satellite consumers. The Hughes SYS-D2532 (also known as a gold dual system) has even more features than it's counterparts D-1131 and D-1132 for more options in your home theater...
Pros: none, at least in my experience Cons: worst purchasing experience I have ever had
My ordeal with Direct TV started in December. I signed up for service and a technician came out to my house to install an antenna. He told me that it was installed properly and left after giving me a 1-800 number to activate service. When I ...
Pros: easy installation, great programing, extremely user friendly. Cons: unfortunate weather causes signal loss.
Five years ago I lived in an area that only offered like 20 channels on standard cable their system. The price was outrageous. So I tried a satellite system from Prime Star, because I didn't want to buy a system. The programing on this system was...
Pros: Digital Picture and Sound, Local Channels Cons: Each TV requires a receiver if watching different channels at the same time
Hughes is by far the best Directv system on the market. The only problem is that they are hard to find in places like Best Buy and Circuit City. Look on the internet, that is where I found the D2532. The D2532 model is far superior to any other Directv...
Pros: great quality hassle free many features Cons: ??????
DirecTv is tops in my household. We've had the system about a year and are pleased as punch with it. There are no surprise fees, no hassles, no interrupted programming unlike the local cable system which we were using before who would always raise the...
Pros: If you're a sports fan, you probably can't do better. Cons: No Star Trek Enterprise, Poor user interface, constant black-outs
I had Time Warner Digital Cable in my old building and my new building only offers DirecTV. Initially I thought this was a great thing - hundreds of channels, more so than Time Warner Digital Cable. But now I see the problems after a month of usage....
Im not sure how other DISH company operate but using Direct TV has been absolutely horrible! I had one HD receiver in my house and got a second to operate a new HD tv for the bedroom. well, i thought this would be somewhat simple process. I was dead ...
Pros: Cheap Cons: Still no more shows to watch than regular cable
Hello I recently purchased a DirectV system from my local golden sky systems dealer. I would say that in general the dish offered from directv are a bad deal. Most of the channels offered are not interesting and are in general very boring. The...
Pros: Outstanding picture quality and sound.
Great channel lineup.
Priced cheaper than cable. Cons: Getting used to the new channel numbers, 200 through 900.
The directv satelite system is definitely worth your consideration. I was fed up with high cable bills, poor picture quality and frequent outages. I now pay $10 less per month and receive more channels with much better picture quality and sound. I have...
