Good for the money

 

Good for the money

Based on the price and a need for RF capability, I thought I'd give this unit a try. It works well with my Quasar TV, Technics CD, JVC VCR, and Jerrold Cable box. It glitched on the Sony DE835 receiver, not being able to switch back to TV mode after...

Not what I expected

 

Not what I expected

The remote worked fine for my GE TV and Sanyo VCR. It also did about 85% of what I needed it to do for my Harman-Kardon Receiver. The problem that I had with it though, is that it did not work for my RCA CD player or DVD player. I would not recommend...

Works perfectly for me

Given some of the reviews, I was initially hesitant about purchasing this. However, it's working like a charm. I have a 1 receiver DirecTV setup with the receiver located in my family room, and then a second TV in our bedroom also wired to the...

Great Enough!

 

Great Enough!

Almost perfect. Love the feature that allows me to turn all equiment on/off with the action+power click (kinda like a shift key). Worked with all my stuff (RCA TV, Sony VCR, Sony DVD, Technics Surround Sound Tuner, and Technics CD), however, remote...

Works exactly as I had hoped - great product

This remote controls my TV, ProLogic reciever, VCR, and satelight dish. All work perfectly. I don't have much to say about it other than it worked just like I wanted it to. I can control my satelight from any room in the house and I'm happy.

"Universal" is a major overstatement

 

"Universal" is a major overstatement

I purchased this model hoping to eliminate the need for three home theater remotes that I was constantly juggling: DVD, TV and Receiver. Well, the Jensen SC-595 operated most of my Toshiba television features, only some limited features of my Sony...

Get a Sony!

 

Get a Sony!

Probably good for simple setups but if ya want something thatis completely customizable, and can learn different codes, get thesony touchscreen remote. It controls up to 12 different components on a wonderful backlit touchscreen display. Much better...

Nice inexpensive RF/IR remote

 

Nice inexpensive RF/IR remote

Remote send out IR as well as RF to the transponder which sends out IR. It controlls my Sony STR-DA555ES, Toshiba 50", Panasonic A120U, Akai and Panasonic HiFi VCRs. This remote exceeded my expectations for functionality (PiP/input/menu for TV, most...

Solid Product

 

Solid Product

Although the LCD-less control leaves little customization for more un-orthodox set up like Replacement of Wireless keboards for winamp (MP3) if you have the money buy the US$350 Harmon/Kardon Remote

Product Specifications

The Jensen SC-595 controls up to 10 system devices - more than any other pre-programmed remote control. This remote is equipped with radio frequency, which enables you to control operations from other rooms, through walls and through floors. The keypad consists of 36 component keys, plus 5 component selection buttons and an "Action" key that works like a shift key to provide a second level of functions on each button (which will shut off after 8 seconds of inactivity). Dedicated transport, volume, cursor and keypad sections are included. A Home Theater Surround Sound and Home Theater Key Cluster system provide easy operation of receivers and volume control, control of satellite system and navigation through DSS programming.
