Great Reception!

"I got the Apex digital converter box yesterday and am very pleased with the reception. It's as good as cable or satellite TV and I'm using this on 13-inch TV that's over ten years old with a $12 UHF/VHF antenna, nothing fancy. Please make sure the antenna is screwed in tightly enough on the computer box to get the best reception. Simple but it makes a huge difference in the quality of the reception. Another ti..."

Box is OK, may be better models. Try several and.

"I purchased this box with one of the government $40 coupons. Three models were available: APEX 502, APEX 250 and the Insignia brand (which I believe is a relabeled Zenith). I had played with the Insignia before and was specifically interested in a box which promoted Analog Pass Thru (for reason which will be detailed later). The two APEX models were identical in price, and based on the information on the packag..." Read Full Review »

Compared to other DTV boxes: Disappointing

★★☆☆☆

"I purchased this box today after having purchased the Magnavox DTV box that Wal-Mart is selling. Initially I was excited because the pass-through technology would be helpful for picking up the channels missed by the Magnavox box. The remote layout and features are far superior as well, and the onscr …" Read Full Review »

"I'd initially used my first coupon to buy the Insignia box last month (which had worked quite well for me, it just lacked the analog pass-thru capability); once the "full-featured" Apex unit became available, I quickly exchanged the Insignia for it. BIG MISTAKE! At the risk of being redundant, read …" Read Full Review »

"I've had this converter box for a few months, and it has NEVER been "easy to use" as the company claims. I've run the channel scan every so often (as was reccommended) and get different results each time. Sometimes I get a channel that I didn't previously have. Other times I get fewer channels than …" Read Full Review »

"After a great deal of research on "coupon eligible" dtv convertors, I made the decision to try the Apex DTxxx at Best Buy. At the store (Sanford, FL), I asked a Best Buy employee what the difference was between the Apex DT250, DT250a, and the DT502. I was given some malarky about the performance bei …" Read Full Review »
