I don't know a thing about the 503, but I do have a RC-600 that seems to work pretty well. It has some pros and cons, though.


The layout of the buttons is far less intuitive for traversing menus, but I rather like the knob/button for that anyway. It does have the advantage of having the play/pause, skip, and ff/rew buttons in an arrangement that can be identified by feel.

It also has a SRC button instead of individual source buttons. This only presents a problem in that there's no CD-MD-CH button, so I can't change info displays without using the menu. The SRC button does cycle through MP3/AUX/FM correctly, however.

But, it has a redundant key...the ATT button is supported by the empeg as a duplicate of the play/pause button, even though it's a separate code. I think I asked Hugo to remap that to the info function, but it was in the midst of a longer conversation and quite a while ago...

It also seems to have some extra transmit power, it gets swamped by sunlight less in the Miata, and it has a longer range in the shade.

So, empeg... How about remapping ATT to CD-MD-CH instead of >/||?
