Unfortunatly I do not deal with Kenwood at all. If I can find out any info for you I will let you know.

So I guess the Theater Master is the one to go with. I am thinking about the SL 8000. Are there any local stores that carry them or will I have to order it? I am just thinking that with my luck lately, it would be easier returning it to a store than mailing it off. Thanks.

A guy at work was just telling me about a Magnavox from BestBuy for $20 that works great. He had to prgram each button separatly for his Motorola Digi Cable box but it controls everything he has perfectly.

Maybe because HTM is also a fast boat :D

I just bought a new remote that seems to do the job wonderfully for $20 @ RadioShaft..ck..........

Controls 5 things, tons of built in codes, lights up very brightly, and if you want, learns from other obscure remotes. This was handy for me because i have a pretty rare carver pre amp, and its never on the code list for a remote. I just made the new remote learn the commands, and the old remote goes on the shelf for good. I even set some of the unused buttons to control my air conditoner by learning from the a/c remote. pretty cool (no pun intended)

heres the one i got. RS Remote

For $20, its worth a try......good luck

I am an authorized dealer for Kenwood Sovereign. Email me the model of your receiver to verify compatibilty. The two-way touch panel remote is around $400.

I bought a RS remote that I think is a notch above the one you have. It works great, but it doesn't have enough memory. I can't program enough buttons to make it worth it.

Andy, do you have a price on a Harmony? Thanks.

compaq ipaq 3599 pocket pc. it works great as a remote as well. can set it up by room's i.e. bed room controls as well as your living room remote with a tap of the screen.

Has anyone tried the Home Theater Master SL 9000? I found a decent price on one. It seems to be a good remote, but I would have to order it through Etronics.com. I really don't want to go through the hassle of returning a remote through the mail. Has anyone dealt with etronics.com before?

Harmony remote special deal $120. visit www.harmonyremote.com to get info and then email [email protected] if you want one. I have two left new and an open box for $105.00

Andy,
Did you get my P.M.?
I am wondering what you think of the ergonomics of the Kenwood remote?
