Not for amateurs
By capefearcinema
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.

Wow, times 6.
By R. Hardy
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 TVTivo HDToshiba HD DVD playerOnkyo receiverSony 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.

Great idea, lots of options, unreliable over the long haul
By M. R. Halsan
I have programmed and used this model for slightly over a year. The possibilities are literally endless- this unit can be set up to control pretty much anything. Graphics - Sound - IR or RF control - multiple extenders - IR Learn capability - it's all there. Philips provides a well-done software suite to set up a code database and build the remote's user interface.The downside- this unit is not reliable- almost moody, if that's possible. It'll work fine for a few days or a week, then start rebooting- over and over, until the battery is dead. Or, the RF link with the extenders will suddenly stop working (usually in the middle of the film, with a roomful of guests). The only way to get it going again is to shut off the remote and extender, than power back up- and then wait several minutes (!) for the link to re-establish. Finally, a couple of the hard buttons quit responding, regardless of how they are programmed.I can't comment on Philip's customer service- they did not respond to any of the three e-mails I sent from their support webpage.This is an ultimate gadget, with a potential for greatness. But, with the odd technical bugs, and no factory support, it's a hard sell.
