I know the Harmony will control all of them including the B&O, but will it also control the stand tilt and turn as we use that alot.

Yes.

Though I don't have tilt on my Avant(s) -the turn works fine. I have not come across anything the Logitechs couldn't handle... to include pre-BL1000 coded Beo!

You could buy a Beo 5, too!

There are many XML-files for the remote to control 3rd party stuff.

additionaly you can buy the Lintronic converter from www.lintronic.dk

Great tool! 

Yes but the Beo5/Lintronic will cost A LOT more and cost you hours and hours of setup time.  Just for a remote....

Exactly!! My Logitech Harmony was $180 and controls everything I've tried..

Beo5 is close to $1000 and the Lintronic thing is about $500 so a better deal IMO

I did not realise these these remotes worked on the B&O frequency.  Is there a specific model or do they all work this way? Is ther a list of commands they can send?

Thanks beoaus

Here in Germany:

Logitech 1100 (successor of the Logitech 1000 remote, the 1000 is not available any more) costs: 449,- Euro

Beo 5 costs 550 Euro

So not that much of a difference. You only need the Lintronic box if you want to create your OWN xml files for the Beo 5. There are many xml files still available for 3rd party control!

And the Logitech 1000 had some realy ugly bugs like cranking the volume up to maximum sometimes (which you can NOT stop because it has an integrated battery that is not removable!). You can read about this on Amazon reviews and in forums.

Just my 2 cents ;-)

Perhaps you should have a look to the Philips universal remotes, too!? 

Try Logitech Harmony One - sure no Beo 4 but...

I have the best (for me) solution possible. My Beo5 as a universal remote. I have used the "Beo5 programming service" that has adverts here on beoworld, with excellent results. 

IMHO, I have the best looking, best working, all in one remote possible right now. And it's the right brand. 🤒

Only issue: not very nice to handle (zapping....)
