As is clear from the other responses, you sould be able to use an alternative remote to control basic functions. When I was about to purchase my Puccini player I decided that: (a) I did not like the dCS remote that came with it at all, and (b) wanted to save the approx. 250 GBP that it cost. So I got the player without the remote control, and then bought a Philips Prestigo universal remote (70 GBP). I “trained” it with the appropriate control codes with a dCS remote borrowed for the weekend from my dealer.
