I have read a lot of posts on this forum over the last couple of months
regarding the remote problems of the Sony STR-DA50ES and TA-E9000ES.
As most people already know, you will not receive a replacement remote
directly from Sony, but rather you need to take (or ship) your remote to the
service center to have the upgrade performed. Although these two remotes
look alike, here's the DIFFERENCE between the two remotes (in terms of the
upgrade): STR-DA50ES: Remote model # is RM-TP501, upgrade package is #T99860652.
TA-E9000ES: Remote model # is RM-TP501E (note the added E),
upgrade package is #T99860041. I had the unfortunate experience of bringing in the RM-TP501E remote for my
TA-E9000ES and receiving the upgrade for the RM-TP501. I received the remote
and notice a lot options missing, and the "Sound Field" page looking a lot
different.
Even though the remotes have the same physical appearance and basic display
screen layout, there are some major differences between them.
Easiest way to verify if you received the correct update is to turn on the
remote
and look at the model name. If the splash screen says "RM-501",
I hope you have a STR-50ES, otherwise if it says "RM-501E" I hope you have a
TA-E9000ES.
