I’ve ordered one too after having the offer email. I’m currently using a Manhattan T2R (I think that is the correct model number!) and it has an annoying software quirk that causes it to cancel (often totally) programmes that may not have clashed when first scheduled as a series link, but later do overlap due to shifting timing (Grand Prix highlights for example). The Manhattan makes no attempt to re-shedule nor to provide any clash warning to allow me to re-schedule. It also has an odd habit of not recording on Thursdays. Other days of the week seem fine, but on Thursdays there is a 25% chance that a recording may not happen!

I have been thinking of an Aura for some time so the offer did prompt me to take the plunge. I’ve had a few Humax recorders and mostly liked them, the 8000T, 9000T and 9200T were great. A friend had a later one (I can’t recall which) and had a huge load of problems with it and this put me off when the 9200T finally needed to be replaced so I had a DigitalStream which was great, that being replaced by the Manhattan.

The Manhattan has been superb up until the last few months, I’m hoping the extra recording capabilities of the Aura (four channels as opposed to just two) will cure most of the scheduling problems that are plaguing the Manhattan.

I’ve joined club Aura, my 4000 is showing it’s age.

Thanks to @Tigerfan11

Without your initial post I wouldn’t have known about this code and would have paid £50 more for my Aura, ordered after my old Foxsat HDR expired last Saturday.

Offer extended until 30th November.
