    I think I need my head seeing to...

    After just purchasing a Harmony 885 (which I like), I've just noticed I now have 4 expensive universal controllers.

    - Marantz RC2000 MkII
    - Marantz RC9200 with RF extender
    - Denon R871 (atkis)
    - Logitech Harmony 885.

    It suddenly dawned on me that this pile of universal remotes is catching up with my pile of original remotes, which after a quick totting up amounts to a staggering 17. Add the universal controllers to that, and I've got 21
    remotes lying around!!!!

    Anyone top that?

    Hmm. I have a Rotel one, can't remember the model number, but it's about 11 years old and has timers in it. Also a marantz RC2000 II, a Pronto RU940 and i'm hoping to swoop on a Harmony 885 on eBay tomorrow. Also I have a learner from my old Kenwood Amp but that doesn't count.
