I have gone without the remote for roughly three years after my then 3 year old son dropped the remote and it broke. Did not blame him though as I probably dropped it enough before him that it was just a matter of time before it broke. I personally do not miss the remote but the rest of my family does; especially those younger members who did not have access to an iDevice. I ordered the new remote, which hopefully will pair well with my golds and if it does I am looking forward to the additional functionality.

I’m completely sure it won’t. There is a standby switch on the bottom and there are only three capacitive buttons on the top. Happy to test when the remotes arrive on Monday though.
Edit: @
cyrus.b have you made sure that “Optical Autoswitch” is turned on in each speaker’s individual settings panel?

I believe the Auto Switch only switches when an optical comes "on", not when there's sound coming in. You have to shut down & power on the optical source for it to auto-switch

The two new remotes arrived and are already set up. They work great and seem very responsive so far, but there's no switching of inputs, as assumed. I needed to bring each remote close to my left Phantom/Reactor to pair it. The Reactors needed a restart before they would pair. Happy with the purchase so far.

New Remote version 2 arrived today.
So far so good: much better responsiveness, metal ring finally with an increased friction to rotation.
Volume level on the display is a “must have”. Play/pause, ff and rev helps the experience. And finally the shape: I can have this new thing with me on the sofa without feeling it rolling over here and there as I move or change position (like the previous one, a sort of rolling ball).
No need to restart or reboot for pairing the new remote. Double fingers for 3 secs on it to pair with a new Phantom.
Not sure when I’d need to use the on/off mechanical switch on the bottom. To save battery when it is not used for long time?
The old remote still works with all my premiers/reactors.
