Hi Bill! Have you found a remote yet? My Marantz preamp came with the 2000. I might be ordering a Niles Intellicontrol in the next week, as long as the dealer gives me a fair price. If I do get the Niles I will not need the 2000 any longer (software contains all codes I will need). The unit has been used a fair amount (@1year) so $100 with shipping sounds acceptable. Let me know if you are still interested.
