CableTVboxes: info??on Voyager/Explorer?


I just aquired the Sony 36XBR400 and find my antennas do not do the set justice. So I am going back to cable ( I live in an apt and dishes are not to easy here) The Warner cable here has the Jerrold which I will not accept, or the "voyager" decoder box or the "explorer" box. When I had cable 10 years ago the box to have was the Pioneer which had a clean/clear signal. So I am asking anyone here if they use one of these and what is the difference in the two? the cable people in the heart of town aren't very helpful and only If I scream a LOT can I get the better box... But it would be helpful to know which would give me the cleanest "digital" descrambling? Thanks in advance for any info!

if you are able to receive digital cable, do subscribe. it's a HUGE improvement over analog. i had 6 or 7 different analog boxes called all sorts of different names. none was very good, even those labeled "pioneer." the digital boxes (i have 2 models for 2 monitors, 1 box more "recent") are cosiderably more robust than any of the analog variety. (FWIW, i still have 1 analog receiver in the guest bedroom - hey, do our guests really need 200 channels?)
Cornfed- any thoughts on quality of s-video enabled DSS vs. digital cable? Just bought a Loewe TV and not that thrilled with the quality of the sat picture, altho it looked great with my old Panasonic. Its not that much bet
