My amp has a 3.5mm IR port. I connected the included IR receiver and power cord to the block, then added a male-to-male 3.5mm cable to connect the block to the amp - instead of using one of the included emitters. Works perfectly. I do need to hold the function buttons on the remote a little longer than before but it works fine and my amp is now hidden.

I bought this as a replacement for a 10 year old model that broke down. The unit is a high quality replacement at a reasonable price. Given that it's a limited purpose device, I'd like to see it a bit cheaper which is why I gave 4 stars instead of 5 but it didn't stop me from buying it and I would certainly buy it again. The device was delivered quickly, it was well packaged and worked flawlessly out of the box.

Who wants to see all their AV tech?!!? Having spend a small fortune making a beautiful minimal space, I definitely didn't want to have to see all the AV units. This repeater set has allowed me to hide it all away behind a repurposed teak sideboard without any external footprint to speak of. The system works really well and I couldn't be happier

Meine 5.1 Anlage und mein Receiver sind im Schrank unter dem Fernseher verbaut.Damit ich die beiden Geräte bedienen kann, ohne die Schranktüren zu öffnen habe ich diesen Repeater eingebaut.Allerdings hat der Repeater Schwächen.Wenn das IR Signal von der FB schwach an der Empfängerdiode der Repeaters ankomm (schräger Einfallswinlel) wird zwar der Empfang eines Signals bestätigt ( blaue LED blinkt) aber das angesteuerte Gerät reagiert nicht.

I use the product to remote control a variety of devices hidden in a wall cabinet. With the multiple emitter units, I was able to position the emitters where needed and only had to discretely expose the sensor unit.I am now able to control four hidden devices from across the room with no lag or lapse.Works very well, exactly as described. Highly recommended.

I bought one of these about 8 years ago. After being on constantly since then (I'd never been able to come up with a good way to get it into some kind of switched setup), it died about 2 weeks ago. I love the feedback it provides with the blue lights to tell you its getting a signal, it's how I discovered that my first one had died, when it stopped doing that. Being relatively pleased with it, I ordered it again. This time it was even easier to install, since I just reused the setup I'd previously created. A plus for me was that I was able to reuse one of the blasters, which gave me even better coverage than I had with just the 2 that come with it. I hope they never stop manufacturing this unit. :-)

I've been working on a 16'x16'x10' custom screened patio with home theater sound. The TCL TV is wall mounted about 7' up, and the Onkyo AV receiver and Samsung DVD player are located in a closet structure behind a set of wooden barn doors. I started with a cheaper model:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N674PE9/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1When installed it had a range of less than 10'. No good on a large patio. I hooked this little guy up in LITERALLY less than a minute - albeit by running the cables openly. I also opted to replace the manufacturer-supplied adhesive mounting tape with small dabs of hot melt glue based on some other 'how to' reviews I had read online. This unit picks up the AV signals from anywhere on the patio. It also picks up reflected signals so even if you're not line-of-sight to the receiving unit you can point the remote at the opposite wall, and the reflected signal is received. This unit cost a little more than the first try, but it exceeds the performance in every way.In the pics you can see the receiver mounted under one of my wall speakers, the control unit mounted to the closet wall, and teh repeated glued to the front of the receivers.

Generally worked as planned. Did not handle our DIRECTV Mini Genie device properly. Genie would respond to commands. Ended up acquiring a Harmony Hub that appears to handle the Genie as intended.

Still working very well after almost a year in use. Their seem to be many nearly identical items on the market. This was easy to setup and use.I am using this with a Logitech Harmony remote as the IR Source with a direct connection. I use IR emitters and IR blaster and direct connect to my Denon components as well. I also have extended using Cat5 cable to some remote areas for a projector and remote TV and it works great. Additionally I back-feed a Niles unit have in another part of the house so that I can have my Harmony control multiple zones.While it does not feel like the same quality as the Niles equipment I have in another area, it is a great value and works fine for me.
