If there was one thing that can really take the wind out of the sails of a home theater system it is struggling with remote controls. And that’s remote controls…plural. If you purchase your home theater system “piece meal” and have a remote control for a TV set, one for a DVD player, one for your cable box, etc it can make life complicated – struggling with half a dozen remote controls will turn a viewing experience into a gigantic struggle. Clearly, this is where a reliable universal remote control comes into play. Basically, a universal remote system collects all the various components of the home theater system and places them under the control of one remote. Now, not all remotes are created equal and some of the more comprehensive remote controls can run upwards of $400, but there are also a number of more affordable models as well. So, if you are tired of having to lug a suitcase full of remote controls into your easy chair the next time you watch TV you may wish to purchase a universal remote instead.
