Hi all,
I think that B&K has made a mistake with their including of the MX-700 remote control with their REF 50 and AVR507.
At issue is the remote controls complete inability to learn anything without a computer. I think it is foolish to assume that each consumer (even though they are spending upwards of four thousand dollars) has the desire, not to mention the computer skills, to computer program their remote.
I recognize that the position of many (and B&K for that matter) will be that the programming of the remote is a job best left to the salesman or store. I agree in principle. That is part of what finding a good dealer and sales associate is all about. My position is that when the customer moves or is, for whatever reason, unable to deal with the original company they may be out of luck.
Any thoughts?
