Hey everyone,

I currently use a Harmony 670 remote in my living room. I am now in the process of moving the A/V equipment in this room into a closet in another room along with new equipment for a home theater in the family room. The audio and video(from blu-ray, cable box, cd player etc) for the 2.0 setup in the living room is going to be controlled via Zone 2 on the receiver in the closet. I need a controller that will be able to turn on Zone 2 on the receiver (most likely an integra) and change volume and video source without disrupting the Audio/Video feeds being accessed from the family room. It also needs a range of about 30 feet through walls and closet door.

I was hoping I could hang on to the Harmony 670 and use it for the new family room setup, but the problem is that this remote needs a direct line of site. Would an IR repeater be capable of accessing the equipment in a closet about 20 feet away?

I appreciate your help,

Brett
