For a wall-mounted receiver, is H24 better than H25?

I don't know... I put the 25 on the back of my wall mounted receiver... why don't you just get the Genie Go?

hi, yes, but you need a swm 8 multiswitch module to use a h25 and international dish. thansk

Anthony - as I was researching this question when I started using my receiver, the answer was - horizontally. Make sure you hang it as close to a window as possible. I also found that I had to experiment with the orientation (N/S/E/W) to get the best signal. Where I am located, the south end of my house works best. Hope this helps!

Depends on your definition of better. The F6400 is the 2013 model and the H6400 is the 2014 model. There are a few functionality improvements the H6400 has over the F6400 in my opinion that lead me to choose the H over the F. The H-series has improved SmartHub navigation that makes it easier to find and open different apps. The motion remote also makes it a lot quicker to navigate through the smart apps, etc. No more endless arrow clicking to select the right app. Just point and click. Lastly, the quad-core process in the H-series I think makes the SmartHub experience a lot smoother than on the F-series' dual-core. These are just my (biased) opinions. Choose what feels right to you. I chose the H6400 and have not been disappointed. Overall it's a great TV.

Its a push. Go with the one substantially cheaper. Dont consider any surround receiver from another manufacturer.

Hey Adam, Since this is a very good receiver, I went with Sonance In-wall Theatre-Cinema speakers all around t Center and they sound great with this receiver. It's worth spending a few more dollars on higher end speakers. Best of luck!

Greetings,In this Price range you would be hard pressed to find a better performing in wall system. The AVR is a Multi Source Multi Room Receiver.

To be honest with you, I don't know, I didn't mount mine on the way and moreover I returned this item because the capacity Is too low compared to the output of my receiver.

Both. I'm using with an Onkyo TX-NR 717 and it has made it as good as a top on the line AV receiver that costs 5-6K. I was so impressed with the Emotiva product I bought their 1800 Watt model which costs $1600. This should make my set-up far more powerful and with much better fidelity than any stand alone AV receiver -- regardless of the price.

The HR24 is compatable with DirecTVs SWM System. I'm using a HR24 in my RV and home both with the SWM system.

You should be able to do that. I have 4 receivers, one Model: HR24-500 hd-dvr and two H25-100 and one H25-500 receivers. You just have to make sure you have the right interface equipment so all the receivers can talk to the main receiver (HD-DVR) provided by Direct tv.

The H25 receiver requires the SWM LNB, either 3 or 5 LNB configuration so the answer to part 1 is yes, the SWM will work with the DirecTV H25 High Definition receiver. However, the proper voltage for the SWM is 21 volts, not 29. You will need the DirecTV PI-21 power inserter which is available all over the place including eBay ($9 new). I would advise against the 29 volt inserter and recommend you get the 21 volt inserter. The inserter has a built in splitter (DC one side, signal the other) so unless you are planning on using more than one receiver, you won't need an additional splitter.

RTK. I have some of these units. They work really well. I only use the transmitter portion, so I have a couple of receivers laying around. If you would them, just let me know.

Not sure which I've got, but the OTA receiver works fine with the Genie/whole-house DVR. I also have an HR24 with its own AN21....maybe not so much.

Standard coax connected antenna. Stronger is better because you will likely get more channels. The simple.tv HW is junky hardware though IMO.

Hi yes. But h25 needs an external antenna or dongle , to work as rf. thanks
