Well, you're in a very select group that finds the Atkis remote non-horrible. BTW, don't drop the remote or crack the screen (easy to do) - it's not covered under the 4802's warranty and I've heard many horror stories regarding attempts to get it repaired and/or replaced.As you discovered, the 4802's amps, while competent, are nothing to write home about. Like you, many other 4802 owners eventually end up using it a pre/pro.
So, to recap you spent around $2000 for a mid-fi receiver and still had to throw some more bucks into it for proper amplification. Now compare the 3802 and the 4802 in "pre/pro" mode. I think might agree that at around $700, the 3802 would have been a better buy.

"I own a 4802. I don't find the remote "horrible." In fact, my wife is quite happy with it as she can operate the entire system from a single remote - and has no trouble doing it. She is quite happy to not have to try and guess which remote operates which piece of equipment. The menu system on the remote is really quite straight forward and not hard to use. It is a learning remote and I have had no problems programming additional equipment and features into it."
