I was wondering what you guy's used for control.
I use a Phillips Pronto tsu1000.I bought it about 2 1/2 years ago.It's got to be the best remote under a grand on the market.

    I just use the remote that came with my receiver:o It controls every thing but my amp's. I don't have the dimming lights and all that fancy stuff though :(

    I bought the Home Theater Master MX-500 last November, the one with the rubber-feel keys, not the gemstone key version. It took the place of 5 remotes, TV, DVD, VCR, SAT Box, and Reciever. It took some time to teach it all the functions of the 5 remotes but I now have it tweeked to do everything I want it to. The thing is awesome. I prefered the tactile feel of the hard keys as opposed to always looking at a screen to see what I was doing. I got it from RRDeals.com, now BlueDo.com , for $125 plus s/h of I think $7.

    I use a 3 iron with a suction cup type affair attached to the end of it.

    I use a 2 wood. Near perfect reach from my chair, to my Nad pre in the mancave.

    Cost? $3 at the pawn-o-matic

    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    I use a Sony comander, (with the touchscreen LCD) and I love it.

    They just came out with a new model too, time for an upgrade. :)

    Just go an theater master MX-500. I got the newest GS2 gemstone version for $118 form surfremotecontrol.com. Thumbpad works perfect, but i havn't been able to use the remote much yet. Still using my old marantz RC1200 learning remote, which in itself is very good.

    What would a mancave be without the necessities?

    I think it's time for a new remote.
