Ok I'll admit that I've never really viewed Samsung products as being of very high quality. What about the new Samsung HDTV 160 receiver ?? Does Samsung have a very good reputation for making quality HDTV receivers?? Any personal experience with them??

I am also getting ready to upgrade my old Direct TV system to a Direct TV HD system. My biggest question mark is a new HD receiver.

Anybody have any experience with the new Samsung HDTV 160 receiver? My local BB has it in stock for $599.

Thanks for any help.

I can sell you my SIR-T150 for much, much cheaper. It is an excellent box and have had no problems with it. Just got digital cable so I have no need for it now. Comes with an indoor boosted Radio Shack antenna. Great for watching CBS HD, Leno, and the SEC college football game of the week.

Can save you hundreds off the cost of a new one and this one is barely used! Make an offer.
