Programmable remotes


Has anyone used aftermarket programmable remotes like the Logitech or Philips with their audio gear? I am thinking specifically of the Bryston products like the BDA-1 or BDP-1.

I would like to use a Philips SRT-9320 with my Bryston BDA-1, PS Audio PWT, and Parasound JC-2. I have remotes for the Parasound and PS Audio, but not the Bryston. Besides having three separate remotes for each of these (which is a PIA), the Bryston remote is very pricey and much more expensive than the aftermarket remotes.

I have considered the Logitech versions, but am turned off by the myriad of negative reviews posted on poor reliability and poor CS.

With respect to the Philips, it would be nice to know if products like the Parasound, Bryston, and PS Audio are pre-programmed into the SRT9320.

FWIW, two friends of mine had Logitech remotes and they both failed within a year. I've been using a Universal Home Theater Master remote for 15 years with no problems. Probably not as slick as the Logitechs, but certainly not hard to program and can handle just about anything.
