Default Linn Majik

Picked up a broken Linn Majik amp the other day, and soon got it fixed.

It has extremely basic controls on the front - so obviously is intended to
have a remote control. Genuine Linn ones seem to fetch a fortune on Ebay.
Anyone know which generic ones will work?

One-For-All universal remote controls have a couple of device codes for
the Linn Majik - 1089 and 1189. If you put the model number of one of
their remotes into this page and search for Linn Majik you can confirm
that a particular model of remote has the code built in:

The Logitech database features three entries for Linn Majik; Majik-I,
Majik DS and Majik DS-I. Therefore any Harmony remote would work, if one
of these designations matches that of the amp.

**Agreed with the Logitech Harmony approach. Best thing for those
odd-ball devices.

Thing is they cost more than a genuine Linn one. ;-)

All I've really found is it is one of the Philips protocols, if that's the
correct name.

Which one? There seem to be lots of different ones with the same name -
and up to about 150 quid.

**The cheapest one, of course. I rather like the nice, colour screen
models, which are sometimes on special for less than 100 Bucks.
Nonetheless, I've used this one:

On special, I've seen them for around 30 Bucks. I no longer bother with
'no-name' remotes, as the Logitech stuff works so nicely.
