John,

Thank you so much!!! I will look into this.

I do not have a universal remote, therefore, I am trying to figure out what I should buy. Basically, I am trying to use this DDTS-100 with my Samsung 50 inch plasma. I bought the DDTS-100 from somebody who lost the remote but I still got it because these decoders are so rare. I am planning to hook up my Klipsch ProMedias to this DDTS-100 so I can enjoy my TV experience. So, I basically only need the cheapest remote to perform this function (dynamic compression) - or do you have any suggestions to better this whole situation? Maybe I could get a remote that could operate my TV and this thing? But I am on a very limited budget, being a starving musician!

I looked into Pronto remotes (TSU3000) on Ebay and they ranged around 75 used. I'll see how much these JP1 remotes cost.

Thank you for your patience and I'll post here when I have more questions - you have been so helpful.
