Harmony is your best bet. But you still have to tweak the codes and do some learning on more esoteric equipment. Just ignore all the other buttons ;-)
Universal remote for audio only
I am looking for a remote for my listening room so I just need it for audio. Most of the universal remotes I have seen are geared more for TV and home theater. They seem far more complicated than what I need. I want something that is geared more toward audio. Something to control my CD player, preamp, and so on so I don't have so many remotes.

I wanted the same thing you did but I would up buying a used Sony RM-AV2100 remote and am very pleased with it. They sell for $20-30 on ebay and can do almost anything you want them to do (full learning, very customizable, etc.) The only drawback is that they are a little big and clunky but I have big hands so it works for me.

A small, simple learning remote that has worked very well for me is the Sony RM-VL700 . They're no longer made but are available from several sources online. It can control five devices and you can program or train any of the five source buttons for any kind of device you have. They're labeled, TV, VCR, DVD, Cable/Sat and Amp but as long as you remember which button works for the device you've set it up for it works great. I use the TV and Amp buttons for those devices in my system and the DVD button to control my CD player. |
