Just got myself a complete SRT system

Managed to pick up a SRT for a very good price.
The system came with 2 main SRT fronts, 2 powered subs, 1 SRT center, 4 LS f/x surrounds, and the control center. No remote though. I've still not hooked them up yet, as I have a lot of moving to do before I can fit them in. Is the remote nesserary to use the system? And is the remote available for purchase anywhere? Or a learning/universal remote which does the same thing? Also one SRT badge is missing, I don't suppose Polk still sell those?

    Call and ask about the SRT badge.

    And serious congrats not only on getting a MASSIVELY awesome system, but doing it outside the US. Thats even harder.

    Post some pics once setup so those of us in the states can salivate over them :smile:

    How cool would it be for Polk to rerelease this system?

    Hi guys,
    I'm so glad I got them, and for such a good price. I've been told there's 7 sets of these in New Zealand, so all the harder to come by. They are in good condition all, and added to that there are 4 surround speakers, not 2. Pity about the remote.
    I've still not hooked them up yet, as I simply don't have the room for them. I've just purchase some new speakers, then a few more, then a few more, and these came up, then I purchased a few more ... you know how it goes, when it's so cheap, it'd be a crime not to buy it?
    Hope fully I'll have them set up next week and will upload some photos
