Jed M Desperado Registered: 05/02/02 Posts: 526 Loc: Home on the range	I have used Harmony, Sony, Pronto and just about every remote out there but I keep coming back to the MX series. Currently I use the MX-700 and am completely satisfied with it. IMO, if you know how to program it well enough you can make it just as simple to operate for the family as any Harmony remote.

All in all about the best deal out there.

ZoFo Gunslinger Registered: 12/29/05 Posts: 35	I just ordered the MX-700 from Surf Remote which is an "authorized" reseller; important if you want product & tech support along with waranty I am told. I also found out that the MX-700 is being discontinued so if you are thinking about one you might want to act quickly. I have no experience with this or any Universal Remote and am going on recomendations only. I really liked their high end "touch pannel" product but you can buy an entry level laptop for the same price! With all the software out there I would think this would be a better option. _________________________ Manley Stingray II Merlin TSM-MMI w/Master RC Sound Anchor 4-Post Mass-Loaded Stands Eastern Electric Mini-Max DAC Vortex Appliance Squeezebox Touch w/Bolder digital mod & PS Cardas Speaker/Interconnect Cables Velodyne EQ-Max 10 65" Panasonic VT-30 ISF Calibrated Outlaw 7700 Outlaw 990 Integra 80.2 Onix Ref 1.5 - Ref-100 w/Ninja Masters/NoRez Oppo BDP-93 Hsu VTF-3 MKII RW Furman Elite BlueJean Cables
