Simplify your A/V rig

bydfetzer926 May 3, 2006
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Highly capable, big capacity, customizable out the yin-yang, looks pretty good
Cons Could accommodate longer on-screen labels, should plug into a battery charger
Recommended it? Yes

I was in the midst of selecting the components for my first major home theater rig. The outfit consists of a Hitachi 42" plasma screen (model 42HDS52, reviewed elsewhere in Epinions.com), a highly featured Denon 3806 A/V receiver, an iPod switched through a DLO remote control docking station, a few...

Recommended it? No

If you buy this and if you don't buy from an "authorized dealer" there is no support for this.  Don't count on getting any help from the manufacturer.  They will tell you it is discontinued and they won't support it any longer and send you to the dealer where you got it.

Excellent Remote, but is some work

byjacobucci Dec 19, 2006
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Highly recommended. All of your devices controlled by ONE remote, from ANYWHERE in the...
Cons A little cumbersome to set up, but totally worth it.
Recommended it? Yes

I have now had this remote for 4 months and I LOVE it! It does take a little work to set up but it is totally worth it once you're done. I have read other people reviews and there are some that get frustrated and finally give up saying the remote is garbage because they can't figure it out, but it... Read full review »

Super size control of your A/V System

byaudio_man01 Jun 8, 2006
16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Eliminate a coffee table full of remotes ... effortlessly!
Cons I honestly can't think of any!
Recommended it? Yes

Remotes!! Don't even get me started. As a custom home A/V integrator of many years, CONTROL (or lack thereof) is THE fly in the ointment for many customers.

For many years, clients really had a Faustian choice. They could:
1) Purchase a "simple" system that almost anyone could... Read full review »
