This is the second AKAI set-top box that we are reviewing on DigitalReviews.net. This is a big brother to the earlier model. Please have a quick read of that review as a lot of aspects of the new model are the same.
These are the highlights of the AKAI AD173X:
As a PVR it allows you to record your favourite TV show directly to a USB storage device. It can also act as a media centre playback unit. It’s 5.1 digital compatible via HDMI and coaxial and basically allows you to timeshare, pause and rewind live TV. Yes, and it has a DVD player built in.
These are all good reasons to have a good look and play with this full HD set-top box.
