Any pro can help. Thank you so much.Ask you all for advice. My parent's HDB flat structure a bit unique has two living rooms, so we have two TV too. We are still using analogue TV for both living rooms. How would you advise me to fully utilize whatever gadgets I may need? Btw, we don't subscribe to cable tv at home, so we don't have mio and starhub box.
Thanks

Guys I need your advice on my best option for my case as follows:
- Owns 2 Digital Ready TVs at home (i.e. don't need any STBs)
- Staying in Choa Chu Kang area (wish to receive Indo and Msia channels if possible)
- I prefer passive indoor antennas (no need power source) over active ones, if 4 outlets only provide active ones then bo bian active lor
I need to get 2 x indoor antennas only, and I'm definitely going for redemption at the 4 outlets with the $100 vouchers.
Questions
1) Can advise which models should I be getting, in order to maximize my $100 voucher without topping up too much?
2) So for Indo and Msia channels, as long as I do a manual/auto tuning of the channel signals, if able to get means able to get, can't means can't, no other steps to do?
3) Can the $100 redeem 2 x antennas or can only redeem 1??
Do you still watch the two TVs?Any pro can help. Thank you so much.

Did you receive the DTV Starter Kit? If yes, you can redeem the set top box+antenna for one of your TV. The another TV can consider getting the cheap China K2 set top box.

You can either have two set top boxes / user component or analogue video out for one set and HDMI for the other / user a HDMI splitter.
But you will end up watch the same channel unless you use two boxes.
You can take this time now to change the old CRT analogue TV to a flatscreen digital TV, saves electricity and also clearer HD pictures too.Thanks for the amazing details. My family has been using the big fat analogue TV so I completely clueless.
Comparing an analogue TV + digital box + antenna vs digital TV + antenna. Which is a better option?
Because if the digital TV option is better clearer, then I may as well buy two new TVs. I won't need big ones, 32" will do.
Thanks guys.

Try go through the TV and box audio options. Off anything that give audio boost.

There are a few 32" TV on sale, brands include Philips, Samsung, LG and Sony.
Good idea too, have to see if OP kazuki666 don't mind the big 50" size.or use the letter get 2 antennas and buy 2 of those aoc/tcl 50s...........
I just got this "type B' remote and it comes with no instruction manual or any note.For those who were concerned with the remote control issue of the K2 DVB-T2 boxes. They changed the remote control model 3 months ago.

Tried all TV and box audio related option but still get the annoying buzzing sound. Only when selected the "undefined" audio instead of "English or Chinese" audio of each digital channel from the setup box sound option, the buzzing sound reduced a bit but quite significant especially for end sound like "s", "c" which turn to like "sss", "ccc" - could it be the audio format decoding issue?
Your box is providing power to antenna? Might be grounding problem. Try to find the option to turn the antenna power off but antenna remain plugged in.
The option of "power on" antenna in the box was turned off indeed..still no luck.
Have you try switching another HDMI cable?
Have u try playing with the Digital Audio output setting of your STB? Check if you can select another option, mine got LPCM & BS option.The option of "power on" antenna in the box was turned off indeed..still no luck.
