I've got the new Samsung which is exactly the same spec (no component but coaxial as well as optical) as the Pace. I have no idea if they are any different but so far so good for me (it only arrived on Friday).

AFAIK Sky do not actually give you a choice in which HD box they give you as it is normally a case of what ever box the engineer happens to have on his van.

i doubt if there's any difference tbh, as there built under license from sky, who specify there requirements, component quality etc
