I had a fault on a couple of STB's in the past and have had them replaced. My home setup requires I have audio out on the STB, but a few months ago, I needed my STB replaced again, and I've been given an inferior model (it's a dark grey pace); it has no audio out, it has an ugly box thing using up one of the scart connections (apparently to enable my STB to receive channels 1-5).

My question is, what the hell is that black thing and can I request a different STB due to being, in effect, downgraded? I didn't even get a new remote with it!
