I know but 3 of the remotes are universal. Currently I only use 2 of the remotes and 1 of them is only for the power button. I was looking at the Harmon 880 but I've blown my A/V budget for a while. Just ordered a new tv, stand, and DVD player.
 
0. I found my tv, stereo, and DVD player in the trash😱, and though they work flawlessly I don't have remotes for them. Perhaps I should spend $20 and get one.
 

we don't have an end table, but we keep the remotes in the storage section of the sectional...

six

cable box - use
receiver - use
tv - use
cd - use occassionally
dvd - dont use
universal - dont use
 
3
Receiver
TV
DVD
Would be 2, but for some reason the numeric controls on the receiver remote stopped working for the TV.
 
3 on the end table, one in the drawer of my coffee table. I mostly just use the TV remote, but I also have my stereo and VCR remote on the end table. The DVD player remote is in the drawer.
 
5:
1 for tv
1 for dvd player
1 for receiver
1 for satellite box

AND,
1 all-in-one super-fancy touchscreen, programmable remote that one of the kids spilled a drink on and no longer works.
 
1 harman kardon avr remote, 1 harman kardon dvd22 remote, 1 sony kdf-e50a10 remote, 1 comast digital cable remote, 1 xbox 360 media center remote, 1 xbox 360 wireless controller...
