Will the mx450 work with a mrf350?
It sure will. The MX-450 is not PC programmable though. Honestly, if it were me and I were doing as many rooms as you are planning to I would get a PC programmable remote for one room and use MX-450's for the rest. That way, if you ever find some weird code that isn't in the database and can't be learned you still have a way to get it into all your remotes.
Also, is it worthwhile to go with the newer narrow band technology? I think with the blaster and 6 emitters, I should be good to go for a while.
There is no doubt that the narrow band is stuff is better. I setup three MRF-200/MRF-250's in different houses and they all had issues with RF interference. That being said, the narrow band stuff has been the only thing available for 3 years now so you shouldn't have much issue finding it.
The equipment I currently have is Samsung LN52B750 in family room, onkyo ht-rc160 receiver, 8200 (maybe 8300) hd dvr and wdtv live all in the basement.
That is all pretty standard stuff. Any of the stuff recommended above should be fine.
