Universal Remotes for hifi components?

Theo - check out the home theather master MX-500. It's very similar to the marantz rc2000. i had the rc2000 mki once. roommatehad a mx500. it was pretty good. i preferred the black lighting, battery life, and IR signal strength of teh mx-500 over the rc2000. the marantz was pretty poor in all three regards.

lousyreeds1 - how about the weemote, link. or are you looking for something with a number pad? The Harmony SST-768 might fit the bill, but it's sort of pricey (to me).

The weemote is cool, but I'm just not sure I can deal with looking at that thing all the time! I don't need a number pad. I essentially need a CD player remote with an added volume control.

ROTFLMAO at the thought of an audiophile using a weemote on a high-end stereo. I think I understand your concern!

I read there is a MKll weemote coming out soon.
I will be called the weeweemote.Supposed to be even cooler looking than the wee!

Harmony 1000 works for me . Very easy & cooool !
