Not always, it comes with IR blasters that would be placed in front of the gear.

A Harmony remote with the hub can be programmed to operate different smart lights for lighting control. You could also program a Harmony to turn off the TV and turn on the projector once you get it. You would use a 12v trigger from the receiver to the screen to trigger it to drop...

The reason I went with Control4 is because I run multiple rooms with smart control and audio. Harmony is great for a single room but it is limited when it comes to multi zone and whole home audio. Personally if I was doing a single room I would go with the Harmony because of how easy it is to...

Dave, Alexa is just one small part in the automation process. I run Control4 for the actual automation and have verbal commands programmed with Alexa to trigger Control4 automation. I have used Harmony remotes and think they are excellent remotes. The nice thing is that you can very easily add...

Hmmmm, let's see if I can figure that out... Like Dave, it's been a slow process of buying components and adding to the system to get it where it is today. Brian

Dave, I have been doing what you describe with the projector for a few years now. I took it up a notch and automated the whole process. With the click of a button or telling Alexa it's movie time, the OLED TV turns off, output switches on the receiver, projector turns on, screen drops, lights...

No, I have not used the 7.1 analog inputs. When you use them, are you switching Input Mode to 7.1 Channel In instead of Auto? Brian

Dave, I really like the Marantz, it does everything I need it to do plus now supports Dolby Vision. I've had Sony ES, Yamaha Aventage, Denon, Onkyo THX Certified and even an older Kenwood and the Marantz has the best overall sound image. I was recently looking at Arcam but don't think I'll do...

No, I have not used the app because it is not supported for the SR7010. You can access the settings menu through any computer as long as the computer and receiver are on the same network. Go to menu with receiver remote, click on NETWORK -> INFORMATION This is where you will see the receiver...

When tweaking the Marantz receiver, I like to log into it through a laptop. I have the ip address memorized and jump right in. It's much easier then using the remote and trying to find everything in the gui on the TV. Another thing with Marantz and Audyssey is that it sets the bass way to low...

Good luck falling asleep tonight. :banana: Looking forward to your thoughts on this receiver. Brian

Dave, the Sony A1E, A8F and X900F models all do Dolby Vision and HDR. The 850F and down will not do it. Samsung does not do DV on any of their TVs. I currently run the Sony XBR65A8F and Marantz SR7010 with 5 B&W speakers around me and 4 Klipsh ceiling speakers.I could not be happier with the...

Dave, Hope thing turn around for you soon. Since you enjoy electronics so much, have you considered applying at an electronics store or a Best Buy? Best Buy offers a decent wage with potential to move up and they have fantastic benefits. You can also get an employee discount to save money on...

If you really want the Marantz SR8012 but would take the Yamaha for $1500, why not go for the Marantz SR6012 for the same money? I have the Yamaha RX-A1030 and the Marantz SR-7010 and can tell you that my next receiver will be another Marantz. The Yamaha was one of my favorites but the Marantz...
