Background. I am looking to buy a new AV amp. I was shown that the remote for the Onkyo 515 operates the Sky+HD box. Is this normal across all brands? I can't see any mention of operating Sky in the Yamaha 673 instruction manual.

Does anyone know if the Yamaha, Denon or Pioneer remotes operate Sky?

This would seem fairly basic requirement.

alternatively you can get the Sky remote to control the AV amp... http://www.sky-remotes.com/sky-plus-remote-av-amp.shtml

Or even better get a decent activity-based universal remote such as the very popular Harmony One. The usablity of the supplied remote control should be way down your list of requirements when auditoning AV equipment.
