first and last of a namesake; VSX-D1S/VSX-D3S remotes...

though some disagree, i firmly believe the D1S to be the best designed, best built, and most powerful of the three. i honestly believe the D1S to be the last stand of PIONEER's Hi-Fi audio-minded design team before the new home-theater generation came in and took over...


though the CU-AV100 series CU-VSX014 is an excellent remote, i tend to feel that the CU-AV200 more closely matches the cosmetics of the VSX-D1S...
