IR Repeater System - Hidden IR Control System for Home Theater Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Not sure what the other guy's problem was with this repeater...It works great! I originally wanted to get the HotLink Pro system based on the high number of reviews that it received, but I ended up getting this one as a Christmas gift. I tested it and it worked really well with no lag and good range, so I then proceeded to take the plunge and install it in my home theater setup. I was very concerned that there might be interference, as I have a 58" plasma TV on the wall...This was not a factor at all. I could not get this unit to fail by placing the IR sensor anywhere around my TV. It worked even slightly out of sight behind it...That said, the unit is installed just below the TV and center channel speaker. I have the system connected to the TivoHD, the Xbox 360, and my Onkyo amp and it has not skipped a beat. I would highly recommend this to anyone needing a good IR repeater, and is not necessarily concerned with hooking it up with no line of sight. Small obstructions do not affect my signal, but it does get over 30ft of range if the IR receiver is in sight. I was able to use my Harmony remote from outside on the patio with all of my devices neatly tucked away in my office. All this for half the cost of the HotLink Pro - Very happy indeed!
