This is the first part in a three part series dedicated to our most popular and recommend AV user interfaces all of which would not be possible without Robert Adler, the man who patent the modern day remote.
This first post is on several all purpose remotes that we integrate often. These are all great choices for operating the functionality of media rooms and home theaters. For more specs on each remote, click on the headings below.
Universal Remote MX-980 
The MX-980 is a well crafted and designed remote. When you place it in the palm of your hand it feels comfortable and intuitive. Many of our clients use the MX-980 and we rarely have any issues with them. We highly recommend this remote.
Universal Remote MX-850
Like the MX-980, the MX-850 is a solid remote that can control a variety of functions;however, where it differs from the MX-980 is the full color LCD screen and the craftsmanship and overall feel. That being said, this remote is still a solid choice.
Crestron MTX-3 Remote
Out of all the Crestron wireless remotes, we integrate and recommend this one the most. The reason being it’s reliability and sleek LCD touch screen design.
Crestron WPR-48 Waterproof Remote 
Spa, pool, shower, lagoon, waterfall, lazy river, or any other aqua related area in a home or yacht, the Crestron WPR-48 is what we recommend when in need to control your AV while wet.
Key Takeaway: A well designed multi purpose remote that can fit easily in the palm of your hand is a solid choice to control media rooms, home theaters, and even wet areas.
