Review on Philips SDV2710/27 Passive Enhanced Digital Performance Antenna - Discontinued by Manufacturer: A Comprehensive Review and Alternatives by Ronnie Polk

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Antenna - Terrestrial Signals

For various reasons I put off the switch to cable, disc or internet TV and ended up using an old terrestrial antenna as my antenna. temporary solution. I was having reception problems with my old rabbit ears and read that this Phillips Passive Enhanced Digital Antenna improved "an order of magnitude". Yes, the reception is much better, it takes up less space (very compact) and it's easy to install. It's not immune to interference from nearby lighting and other weather conditions, but it's a definite improvement over what I've used before. The price was right, shipping was fast, and performance was as advertised - it handles high-resolution signals with ease. I would recommend it as a well designed device that works well. I would also recommend it as a backup for a cable or dish - in case they fail you can "preset" on-air signals.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Only available in white
