LCD Remotes

Can anyone recommend a decent LCD Remote? I`m toying with the idea of getting one but my knowledge on them is limited to say the least.

I don`t want to break the bank either.

Thanks,

Dave

Try the Marantz RC1200 from empie direct - £38.
Not currently in stock (expected February) but usually about £99 elsewhere.

word of warning.. if its out of stock at empire direct, dont buy until they get stocks, better still shop else where, i have endless problems with them, one of them being the supervisor saying my amp was going to turn up on Thursday and it turned out it wasngt even in stock. even worse when i phoned him up about it, he said he wouldnt say it was due thursday if it wasnt in stock. Maybe i should record my telephone conversations. I got my money back and went elsewhere. Why not try the Cambridge audio m1 £80 from Richer Sounds?? touch screen , back light and can control 8 devices, even sky digital

I have a 2MB Philips Pronto touch screen LCD, works very well and completely customisable and controls a theoretical "unlimited" number of devices (memory allowing). I have it working with Sky Digital, Kenwood AV Amp, Aiwa CD, Ferguson VCR, Pioneer DVD525 and a Scan SC3000, Decca Widescreen TV . Toshiba TV all with no problems.

Only problem with these remotes is the price (£150 - £200), available from Richer Sounds, Keene Electronics etc.

Also you can hook it up to your PC and customize it wih graphical buttons and fancy layouts.
