I think the V6 & V7 are the best built jynxbox clone receiver,JMO.

Also v10 plus, more like an original but much better.

My V6 & V7 work perfect and have a great pic, my V10 didn't last long enough for me to say one way or the other.

I'm looking on Ebay and the 6 and 7 versions don't seem to have component. Only one's I can find are v10. Is that right?

How's the guide? I have a Viewsat MaxHD. The guide is amazing but I keep blowing the receivers. My second one just died. I think it's cause I was running through an sw44 and the power draw blew it.

Also, I want to run 5 satellites. 3 through a diseqc then 1 through a sw21 then to the diseqc. Originally I was running through the sw44 but am going through an 3x4 switch now.

The V6 & V7 have component out, the cables come with the receiver, one end ot the cable looks like a computer speaker cable and the other end is RCA.

the guide is okay, i'm using a usb flash drive to get almost a 48 hr guide, right now i have a dish 500 with dpp twin lnb on port 2, on port 1 i have a vip 211 powering the lnb so the jynxbox won't over heat. the dpp lnb's require a lot of amps to work, a little more than the fta boxes can produce. you can cascade the switches so you can view 5 sats. today i'm trying to connect a turbo hd dish that has the 119/110/129 sats. it has the triple dpp lnb with 3 outputs and 1 input, this is where i'm having an issue and will have to read up to find a fix. If i were you i would dump the 44 switch even the sw versions need a lot of amps to power.

If you are setting up a turbo hd 3 eye LNB you need to read thread/ bad LNB /.
You need to know if you have an eastern ark LNB or a western ark LNB, the eastern ark LNB will not work for iks.
If you need more help, start a new thread in this section and ask, I will help you setup your dish and your provider receiver & jynxbox.

How can you tell if you have a eastern ark or a western ark?

V6 & V7 Come with composite not component, the latest model that seems to have component is V10 & V4 pro, look at the back of the unit.

So the only model that comes with HD component connections is V10? I see V11 is released and it doesn't look like it does.

Nice to no. Glad some asked before I did. Going to get v6 or v7, but like to no if it's motor friendly and can u make it free to air while having private server?

Further research, the V4 & V4 pro have the component output in the back and you can use any over the counter quality component RCA cables, the V10 looks like a R232 to RCA proprietary cable which it maybe hard to get.

I saw some v4's on Amazon cheap. Is it worth it to spend the extra for the v10 over the v4?

I have had a V4 (not the pro model) for 1 1/2 years know and is very stable, no problems what so ever, I just order a V4 pro.

Hard to say guys there so many different ones out there. Have ran v1,v2,v3 and v7. they all work good. Just got an e-mail that v11 and v12 are being release to see if I was interested in them . Seem to be getting a little more confusing

I would get the V7, it has a fan, as for the files they are in the /all other receiver file section/.

Okay so sometime has gone by and I am looking at buying a jynxbox and the more I read the more confused I get lol. Has anyone had a chance to try the v12 version and if so is it any good? What versions are the best right now I have only been able to find V12 and some V11's for sale at a decent price.
Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!
