They are in a cabinet (spouse, kids...) and I would like to be able to use the system remote (SR5) while the cabinet is closed. The NAD amp has an IR in and I know that the amp IR out can be connected to the 542. NAD recommends Xantech repeaters (or whatever the correct term would be under these circumstances) in their manual and on their web page. Unfortunately, they are unable to tell me what exactly I need. Neither is Xantech. Xantech tech asked if the amp provides 12V power at the IR in connection. I don't know. NAD does not answer that question. If that was the case then there may be a cheap solution available with only an IR extender plugging directly into the amp with a mini stereo plug. If not then I may have to buy all sorts of other gadgets. Did any one ever accomplish this? Does any one know if the IR connection on the 325BEE provides 12V power? Is there a technical manual available for the amp and the CD player? Thanks. |
