    Remote through/around walls

    I'm looking at locating my HT equipment in a room, all hidden from sight. This brings the problem of course that typical remotes won't work.

    Can I buy a piece of equipment to pass the signal through the wall (ie in-wall receiver visible from ht room, transmitter in equipment room), or do I need a radio freq. remote, or ...?

    Suggestions and links to equipment appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Paul

      Paul, you can use some IR repeaters that have tiny bugs that you attach to your IR receiver on each one of your components, they all attach to a single box that has a receiver that you hide in a location that you want.
      You can also go with a remote like the MX3000 that has bulit in RF in the hanheld unit that corresponds with an add on RF receiver that converts the signal back to IR and uses the bugs to complete the signal.

          by k99
          Hi all...
          This is my first post here and I must say there is a wealth of knowledge in here!
          I just purchased my first Rotel piece an RSX-1057
          I am coming form a Marantz SR7200 and I am more than impressed! I have one small problem though that I cannot figure out for the life...

          I found a floating, waterproof remote control!
          by Chris D
          I followed up on my previous post of needing a waterproof remote control by buying a Balboa Dolphin Flier remote, and thought I'd post information on it that could help others. I've run into several people who are looking for a similar type of product with no luck.

          I'm very impressed...

          erratic remote/IR on 1055?
          by stewc
          I'm a 1055 newbie, and I'm having trouble with what seems to be erratic behavior of either the new remote or the receiving eye on the 1055 itself. Specifically, the power on, sent via IR, doesn't consistently work which makes all subsequent commands a bit, um, difficult. Problems with other commands...

          Just ordered a new AV Receiver today
          by Dean McManis
          I had been working on other projects over the years and I had not spent much on my AV equipment in a while. But a few weeks ago I finally got a 1080p projector, and today I ordered a YAMAHA RX-V473BL AV receiver.

          My HT audio currently evolved from a music-first background. And as I mentioned...
