Now let's review the external interface of the receivers. Dreambox DM800 HD has one S/PDIF optical result, one scart connector, one Ethernet and modem slot, two USB and some eSata ports, one Dvi and some RS 232 slot. The Dreambox 500 S receiver has much less ports. It has only 1 scart and one Ethernet slot, one S/PDIF and one RS232 slot and 2 analog audio out ports and one analog video out slot. The Openbox S9 receiver has 2 scart ports, 6 analog movie out and audio out ports, one Ethernet and one HDMI port, one RS 232 and one usb port no S/PDIF port.
The 3rd point of our comparative analysis may be the internal components comparison. The DM 800 HD includes a top quality 300Mhz processor and has the Alps 801A M Tuner, which delivers very clear HD movie and sound. It also has an OLED display and just one smartcard reader. The DM 500 however, includes a weaker processor, with just 250 MHZ, and a mature edition of the Alps tuner. It also has only 1 smartcard reader. The Openbox S9 receiver includes a regular tuner and a normal LCD display and 3 smartcard readers. Just like the Dreambox 800 receiver, the Openbox includes a quick 300Mhz cpu.
All three receivers are running Linux OPERATING-SYSTEM, all support several LNB-Switching (DiseqC), all have teletext, OSD and EGP support and the frequency range on all three models is 950 to 2150 MHz.Now let us compare the price of these receivers. According to CRVC11 Shop, the cost of DM800 HD is $193 in USA and £121 in the united kingdom . The cost of 500 S is $89 in USA and £57 in British, and the price tag on S9 is $118 in United states and £77 in UK.
In conclusion, the cheapest model is the Dreambox 500S which also has the poorest performance, as the more costly model Openbox S9 receiver has somewhat moderate to higher performances and the best priced model Dreambox 800 gets the best performances.
