My current remote (which came with my DVD player) is on it's last legs so I'm after a replacement before the current one dies.

I'd like to control the following components:

1. DVD Player/Surround
Pioneer DV-77

2. TV
Samsung CS-722AWT

3. Digital Set Top Box
DSE brand "Digital Terrestrial Receiver"

At the moment I use the remote from by DVD player to control the TV (TV, AV1, AV2 etc only) and DVD, CD, Tuner etc...and the remote from the DSE receiver to control volume, channels...but I'd like to control everything with a single remote.

I'd like decent flexibility and functionality at a reasonable price.

Any recommendations on where to buy (I'm in Australia so online is probably ideal) would be helpful too.

Thanks all.

Are you on a budget? What kind of remote would you like? Hardbutton's, LCD with buttons, full touchscreen? touchscreen with buttons? Explain what you exactly want... But for now, for a touchscreen i would reccomend the TSU-3500/7500, Hardbutton easy to use with LCD, Harmony 880, Harbutton, URC MX-650, Touchscreen with buttons, URC MX-1000.

Prices:

TSU-3500: $450 retail can get cheaper online

TSU-7500: $750 retail can get cheaper online

Harmony 880: $250

MX-650:$250

Don't go with the MX-850, the lack of PC programmibility will kill you. The MX-850 can be gotten from an authorized dealer for about the same price Ali gave (just email them).

As Ali said, we really need to know what you're looking for first.
LET'S GO BUFFALO!!!
