What is the best HD receiver for Direct Tv?

What is the best HD receiver for Direct Tv? (BESIDES HUGHES TIVO) I am in the process of switching to Direct TV and I want to get a good receiver with the most flexibility.

Thanks

The Hughes HTL-HD is nice, there have been good reviews on the Sony HD-300 also. I have yet to see, or see feedback on, the performance of the RCA DTC-210. If you poke around most of us are happy with the HTL-HD.

I have the HTL-HD and I would highly recommend it.

I have heard great things on the Sony model, but it all depends on how much you want to spend on the receiver. The Sony will cost you more.
