HD Equipment—the hardware responsible for transforming the ordinary viewing experience into a breathtaking one.

The HD DVR allows you to see recorded programs in HD crystal clear quality.

You will need a separate DIRECTV HD receiver or DIRECTV HD DVR to receive your DIRECTV HD programming. No worries, though, because one or the other of these will be installed for you by a professional, usually within 48 hours of placing your order. (See the installation page for more install details).

The reason you need a DIRECTV HD receiver is because the built-in HD tuner in your HDTV only allows you to receive over-the-air HD programming which is very limited. With a DIRECTV HD receiver, you get all the variety and abundance of programming available through satellite technology. In addition, the HD DVR and receiver combination, allows you to see, record and play back programs in full HD clarity.

If you want to see what your HDTV can really do, your choice is crystal clear: DIRECTV ranks number one for the best HD. And if you order DIRECTV HD today, you’re choosing a provider with a strong commitment to adding HD channels and staying on the cutting edge of HD programming.
