2025 Smart Remote Face-Off: AVA vs Unfolded Circle

Still trying to decide how to replace your Harmony Remote? I've got all the top contenders in house and today I'm comparing the user experience of the Unfolded Circle Remote Two and Remote 3 to the AVA Cinema Remote. Whether you're looking to control the whole house or just your home theater, these remotes offer a very powerful solution for controlling devices via IP or IR. While they have a lot in common, I'll also cover the main differences in functionality and user experience, and perhaps the biggest differences, the setup and configuration process for each. I don't have affiliate or dealer links for any of these remotes, but if you find my content useful and want to support the channel, here are a few options for you: Kaleidescape Strato C: https://audioadvice.io/3ZO6g1E Kaleidescape Terra 48TB: https://audioadvice.io/3BE9nBm Rega Planar 6: https://audioadvice.io/3VQ1oIb Valencia Theater Seating: https://us.valenciatheaterseating.com/?sca_ref=7081756.CdTEGcxFKh UMIAcoustics black wall panels: https://amzn.to/4geEIJL ATS 24x48x2 acoustic absorption panels (with custom artwork): https://amzn.to/4ge9JO1 ATS 24x36x2 acoustic absorption panels: https://amzn.to/4fjHM6b
