Wow, times 6. [Posted on 2007-11-01] The wow, times 6 refers to the 6 remotes that I was happily able to put in a drawer by replacing them all with this beauty.
Obviously, it's very expensive and I will tell you right now that I know that it is WAY over-kill for my modest system, but I haven't regretted getting it for one second. Also you need to know that unless you have some programming skills, then you will need someone to program it for you and that will add to the over-all cost, as well. It has zero capability of controlling your system out of the box, and must be custom programmed for all of your devices, and thats not a simple task.
Here's what I have programmed it to control:
Panasonic plasma TV
Tivo HD
Toshiba HD DVD player
Onkyo receiver
Sony PS3 ( using IR USB adapter from Nyko BluWave remote set )
Roku SoundBridge ( via 802.11g wireless communication to SlimServer running on my home network ).
It can also access the internet to grab things like the current time, and weather.
Not for amateurs [Posted on 2008-04-26] The Pronto TSU9600 is a powerful control panel that should easily replace all of your remotes, allowing you to consolidate your home theater control in one stylish, easy to use unit. However, programming this unit is not for amateurs. I have the Pronto Pro and had become fairly adept at programming it, but it took many hours to master. The 9600 is far and away more complex, and not user-friendly by anyone's definition. On the plus side, it is a beatiful piece of work, and works great once you have it programmed. If you're technology friendly, I highly recommend it.
