New tv or saorview box?

supersonic64

I have this TV http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-26LC2R-Widescreen-Ready-LCD/dp/B000FBFY3M that was moved to the bedroom when a newer model was got for the living room. Would like a working Tv in the bedroom again and dont need many channels. Am i better getting rid and buying a new 26" for approx €280 or would buying a saorview box be ok with this tv and if so would any one from the like of Argos or Currys be ok? Thanks

A Saorview STB would be the cheapest option if the TV is still working Ok and you have the space.

This Alba is one of the cheapest Saorview boxes at €50 and provided your TV has a scart connection it should be OK - http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/1397578/c_1/1%7Ccategory_root%7CHome+entertainment+and+sat+nav%7C14419512/c_2/3%7Ccat_19780832%7CDigital+boxes+and+services%7C14419633.htm

Yeah TV has scart and HDMI connection so will probably go down this route as not used too often,Ta.

Aldi have boxes for half price at the moment, 25 quid so might be worth checking out
