Click Here To Purchase The Insignia NS-DXA1 Digital TV Converter Box
Product Details: The NS-DXA1 converter box provide excellent purchase quality that rivals that of the best converter boxes on the market. It is a huge upgrade from the average analog broadcast and only a slight step below DVD quality. The sound quality of the this Insignia box is very good and rates out an on equal level to the top digital converter boxes in regards to sound quality. This converter box sells for roughly $50 give or take a few dollars. This converter box is very hard to find and a good alternative if you can't find it in stock is the Zinwell ZAT-950A.
This converter box has a better than average programming guide that displays the show title, current show run time, and the next show run time for all other channels. It has a "set by program" aspect ratio option that we have not seen with any other converters yet. This means you can set the aspect ratio to a different setting for different channels. The Insignia's major advantage when compared to all other TV converter boxes is that it comes with a universal remote that can be programmed to work with the TV and the converter box. This digital converter box also comes with the ability to adjust the font style, size, and color for closed captioning. This converter box now includes analog pass-through.
The Insignia NS-DXA1 is one of the best converter boxes we have seen up to this point. It has the analog pass-through feature, great sound quality, and awesome picture quality. Unfortunately it has proven to be one that is hard to get your hands on with very few retailers carrying it. If you can find one I'd buy it ASAP before its gone.

Could you comment on why I lost some channels after I hooked up the box? They were coming in fine for awhile, and then Kapoot. I can't bring them back through auto or manual means. Also, the sound quality is very poor. I can't get the sound to project past 5 feet of the TV. Any way of turning it up? I am using the remote.
It is an Insignia NS-DXA1 box.
Thanks, ed
I like your blog. Very informative. I think I'll get this insignia box for my other TV. I'll let you know how it works.
The Insignia now comes with analog passthrough and they no longer sell the model that did not. You can find it for $50.00 and it works great, good picture and sound, the guide is based on what the network is broadcasting and works great, if the network you are watching broadcast what the show/movie/game is about, our who is playing who? No need for the TV guide to see what's next.
My Dad needed a converter box to go with his coupons, and the Insignia was available at Best Buy at the time. This box is the generic version of the Zenith, and shares the exact same features.
The towers were 40 miles away, and the reception was perfect on the rooftop antenna. The other box he bought was installed in a large shed surrounded by trees using only rabbit ears, and the reception was a little shakey but picked up all available stations. Impressive.
I have been using an Insignia digital converter for about 90 days with everything working fine. Today it now has no sound. Picture is fine and tv speakers are fine without the converter. Any ideas?
I, after much time and work, got the Insignia NS-DXA1 to work and was able to record a TV program to my DVD recorder. However, if I am not around to activate the Insignia it will not "turn on" to allow a scheduled recording. Is there a work around or solution to have the converter box "turn on" when a program is scheduled for recording and I'm not there?
