So is the sound output on the Humax a bit tinny or not??

I have a cheapo Daewoo that has a " tinny " sound output, it is otherwise virtually perfect, but the sound output really lets it down.

I run mine through my Hifi amp and speakers so I get a good sound :D :cool:

I, too, put the sound through a home cinema and it sounds great...

I've never had any problems with the picture, either...

The Humax certainly doesn't seem to be a rip-off - 99.9% of Humax mentions are positive...hardly ever seen anyone have anything bad to say about it...

Doesn't answer my question, I don't want to run one through an amp.

Have you been into the Engineering set-up screens?

Errr...it kinda does answer your question...I said "it sounds great", not "it sounds tinny"....tinny != great.

If it was a bad sound, the amps would just amplify the badness.

Sound quality is good...but you're always going to get a "tinny" sound through TV speakers (esp on cheap LCDs...)

The point is my TV has built in Freeview, the sound is fine, it is just crap via my Dawoo PVR, so cannot blame the TV speakers, I just need to know how the sound is on the Humax?
