I just stumbled across this site while trying to learn about a marantz RC2000 i'm about to purchase. Cool site, way too much to pick up in an hour or so. Heres my dilemma. I have never owned a "learning" remote (I programmed my dad's Onkyo remote though thats the extent of my knowledge). I own a Shure HTS-5300 surround processor, but lack the remote control. I just purchased a new one from ebay that comes with a remote (dont have it yet its in the mail). In the past, I have tried to get the cheap code-remotes that do stereo equipment, and even came across one with a code for shure equipment, but nothing ever controlled this unit. (I also couldnt get them to control my DVD player, a samsung model -- maybe that unit is too new for it?) After reading in the forums that the RC2000 has a hard time controlling certain frequencies, I am beginning to wonder if I am wasting my time getting this (or any) remote. Maybe I am worrying for nothing, but I dont want to spend the money if it wont work for me. Does anyone have experience with these early-80's processors or know about them? What is the possibility of changing the frequency if the current frequency wont work??? Thanks in advance for any answers! Please write me at
