Tired of my crappy remote. Any suggestions?

Forget the remote and treat yorself to a pair of Dr. Scholl's memory fit insoles, much cheaper than a new remote and great excerise for those long listening sessions

If the remote is defective it can be repaired by remotes.com. I just had a sony remote repaired by them and it now works great.

There's always the Weemote. http://www.weemote.com/products.html . That's only got a few buttons. If you want something a bit more ordinaly looking, but still with an InfraRed signal strength that like literally allow you to bounce the beam off of walls (meaning you don't have to point it directly at your gear) consider one of the Home Theater Master remotes. The MX-500 is pretty popular and affordable. http://www.remotecentral.com/mx500/ If you don't even need the features of the MX-500, there's the SL-9000. http://www.remotecentral.com/sl9000/index.html . There are the remote control workhorse of the aftermarket learning remote world.

Happy hunting!

Does anyone make simple aftermarket metal remotes? Something like the little ones that come with some Simaudio Preamps - Very nice!

Second the MX500 or its slightly higher brethren. I have the 700 (?) that has an IR repeater so the gear can even be in a different room.
