Issue 298
    "Topfield has created an impressive machine that combines superb picture quality with a vast choice of features and a uniquely flexible upgrade path via its computer connectivity".
 

The incredible "Toppy" features twin Freeview tuners, allowing you to record two channels whilst watching a further two, at the same time!

  • Connect your home computer via USB2.0 and transfer your MP3 collection on to the built-in hard drive

  • 160 GB available - up to four days of non-stop television recording

  • Record entire series - not just one episode - using the easy-programme timers

  • Top-Up TV compatible, allowing you to watch even more

  • Customise the receiver with your own personal settings using downloadable or home-brewed software

  • Throw away your old VCR and watch what you want, when you want - Toppy=POWER!

Available to order via any Superfi branch too!

The Topfield TF5800PVR (or "Toppy" as it is affectionately known) is a uniquely specified Freeview PVR. The Toppy's devastating flexibility enables you to watch and record a combination of up to FOUR channels at once, to output two different programmes (including recordings and live transmissions) simultaneously via its RF outputs and scart socket, to record/pause/rewind/fast-forward live television and to edit recordings on the hard disk for later playback or output to your PC.

Further, the TF5800 allows user-developed application programmes - or "TAPs" - to be added via USB2, increasing features and functionality beyond the already impressive array on offer, enabling limitless software control possibilities. Yet, with all that functionality, it is a sprightly performer - channels change in under a second, bringing an end to frustratingly slow Freeview surfing.
