Turn off my Crown amp with a remote control?
It's a com-tech 400 and obviously doesn't come with a remote and I use it with my home theater so I have to get up and turn it on and off everytime I want to watch TV or a movie etc...

A pretty simple way would be to purchase an X10 lamp or appliance module. X10 has starter kits which are relatively inexpensive. You plug the sub into the module and use either the remote if provided in the kit, or you can find the needed codes online and program into your learning remote if you have one. I've used the modules to control lighting, ceiling fans, etc... www.remotecentral.com has X10 codes on their site as well as other universal remote codes.
