Which Universal Remote?

**jmy2469** · **11-07-07, 03:01 PM**

Looking to purchase my 1st univeral remote. Something that I can use with my Sony KDSR60XBR1,D*TV H20 receiver,Onkyo 605 receiver,Sony PS3 and Xbox 360. What should I look at? Are there any to stay away from? Thanks for the help.

Look into the Logitech Harmony line of remotes.

Yeah, the Logitechs seem to be the best right now. A little pricey, but with something at every price point (unlike the Pronto's and Crestons which start expensive and go up).

I'm hoping to get a Harmony 890 for Christmas from the wife. If not, I know what I'm buying in January.

Logitech 880. Have had it for over a year now and love it!

Agreed, the 880 is a great all around remote with lots of options.

Universal MX-350

I would have to agree. I was looking for the same thing and found that Logitech appears be at the top of everyones list.

I've been using the Universal Home Theater Master MX-800 for several years now. I really like the user friendly computer interface programming. I had an MX-700 before that and sold it with a processor. Universal also has a host of remotes to choose from.

I've also heard a lot of good things about Harmony as well.

I have the Logitech 880 and it is a nice remote but it's probably more than I needed. I don't however, care for going on line to program it, but I'm sure that's just me.

I have the harmony for about 2 years, and they have updated the online software so programming is so much easier now.

Cast my vote for Harmony as well,...though I still don't like the way they are programmed, I do really like their remotes.

I have the Harmony 880 remote and love it. I had a very old Marantz RC2200, which took 4 AA batteries and I would have to replace the batteries at least every two months. The 880 comes with a recharger cradle, fits your hand, customizable and easy to use.
