I'm putting together my first ever home theater and need advice, as I am an old, technically challenged woman.
Problem No. 1: I want to control everything with one remote control. I prefer something that is user friendly and highly visual. A tablet display with everything laid out on it would be awesome. Or something. Whatcha got?
Problem No. 2: All the gear (except subs and projector) will be in another room. How do I control it from my seat? I've heard of IR extenders or some such, but know nothing about them and nothing about how they work. I need an education and suggestions please!
Problem No. 3: I want everything to turn on and off with the press of a single button. Lights included, if possible.
In case it matters, here is the gear I need to control:
Projector: Epson 5050ub
Pre/Pro: Marantz AV7706
Power amp: Emotiva XPA-11 Gen 3
Subwoofers: SVS sb4000 (two)
Disc player: Panasonic DP-UB802
Smart lights: TBD
Thanks in advance. So far, the people on this forum have been incredibly helpful!
