@mesch I have not gotten mine yet but might reach out. Thanks!
Cambridge CXC: Help finding a small, programmable remote?
After much research and searching, I was pleased to purchase and receive the Cambridge CXC transport. As some mentioned, the CXC remote is ungainly, crammed with buttons for other products I don't intend to purchase.
Does anyone have a lead on a small, programmable remote — something the size of a Roku remote? This makes much more sense. Having input buttons for specific tracks would be nice, too. (Cannot *believe* they left those off. FFS.)
Hopefully any answers might also help folks with other products who, like me, hate their remote.

Would there be reason to think earlier remotes from Cambridge would not work? Eg https://www.ebay.com/itm/CAMBRIDGE-AUDIO-CD-32-34-Original-Remote-Control-GENUINE-FREE-UK-DELIVERY-/... |
Thanks. The fact that the CXC remote has no way to go directly to a track is such a boneheaded mistake by the designers, it defies comprehension. Here’s their response: “However, if you know of any universal remotes where you could program in IR codes, here's a link to the CXC's IR codes: https://techsupport.cambridgeaudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/202591991-CXC-IR-Codes ” |
@mesch Great to hear! My Atoll integrated has the same issue with their remote... It's funny how technology's ideology is always toward conglomeration. As if we all wanted a remote as all-encompassing as our corporations and that we would be participating in vertical integration (preamp, amp, cd player, etc.). Not really how we roll. |
