From Bravo: Do you know if they also offer remote control? Would love remote as preamp to my ClassT amp for speakers (seems some QC issues few users?)

Andrew, thanks for the interest here. No this unit does not offer any remote control option. It is analog through and through with no LCD interface. There is an on/off toggle. These units have held up well overall from what I have seen. Once in place (especially as strictly a headphone amp) the sonic quality output is pretty dramatic vs. straight to source. If purchased from me, I conduct a brief test before final packing to ensure all is functioning as opposed to just a shelf pull and pack.

I sold mine before any issues happened. pretty solid amp, pushed the sub i had, got hot quick.. i also had the 4 channel just like this one and it went bad on me. sold the 4 channel for parts and got rid of this one because i wanted matching amps. polk makes some good stuff but these series of amps are always online being sold for parts/ broken and need repair if that tells you anything. for the price look into mb quart.

Anyone try running the output through the Fx Loop Send, increasing gain and lowering the Volume(so the speaker isn't heard)?But if this works you'll loose the Power tube phase. I'm using Blackstar Ht Metal's Emulated Output for this purpose.

There is no remote control... the gain control is connected thru wire not wireless. If you set the desired gain manually on the amp then you can control the gain thru subwoofer option on your player.

Glad to hear you got one, have you tried it yet? Mine is on it's way via UPS, I should have it tomorrow.12/5 UPDATE: by now you may have found out the VS4121 only works if you connect the speakers that come with it. The subwoofer doesn't work as a stand alone with the IM600. I just called Altec and got someone who actually knew what they were talking about and he was surprised that it was recommended by an Altec employee (Wagner). None of their speaker systems w/sub work on the IM600. The guy I just spoke with said there is a stand alone sub in the works and should be out early next year. Sorry for the bad advice but as you can see it was given to me as well direct from Altec. Happy Holidays! Glad to hear you got one, have you tried it yet?

Pinnacle lists a few options here: http://www.pinnaclespeakers.com/rc-sl.html Additionally a learning remote would work, or you could just connect the system to your TV's headphone or RCA outputs and continue to use your TV remote to control the volume.

As these are speakers only, and the are meant to be connected to a home theater amplifier, no, there is no remote control. Any remote control would belong to the amplifier, which is not included.

I was just going to post the same question, so I'm assuming it doesn't have presets at all. I'm guessing the previous person who said that's probably for a different model system was correct. That's the only button on my remote that does nothing so I know it's not a bad remote. Oh well, still a great system you just have to learn how to adjust bass and treble depending on what you're watching/listening to.

Yes. I tested it using my iphone to RCA in to the Bravo with RCA out of the Bravo in to my stereo. All volume controls on all devices were active.

Did you ever find an alternative to the BB2001? Funny, I just bought the im600 today, and it still had the slip in it for the BB2001. I would like to buy a subwoofer for it though, so let me know :) That goes for anybody reading this, too!

Yes, the remote offers both bass and treble adjustments as well as output leveling and dialog emphasis. I think you will find the available adjustments more than adequate.

Revised...I would hook up your d1 to the Bravo input RCA jacks in back of unitoutput from the d1 to input on the bravo then output to speakers. that way you should be able to use headphones and speakers. I didn't realize the d1 didn't have input jacks.

Yes u can control the sub-woofer. There is a button on the top when depressed u can have a lot of Bass or not so much. I have mine on the not so much bass and it is plenty of bass. In the more bass it rumbles to much and is a bit over powering. The unit should come with a remote control u can change settings from your chair. Remote control is very fragile so if u buy a new unit take care of the control. Once set use your vol. control for the TV. I love my VIZIO sound bar great unit makes all the difference in the world in the sound. Especially if TV is not mounted to the wall. The speakers on most all HD TV"S are on the back side that redirect the sound off of the wall. Yes u can control the sub-woofer.

This amplifier doesn't come with any type of hand held remote. However it does have a 12 volt trigger port in back that connects to your receiver. This allows the amp to respond on and off with the receiver. I would also recommend getting an Onkyo Network receiver that has the Remote App to control it from a tablet or smart phone. It makes things really simple and cool!! Have fun with it.

The remote was the lest of my problems. To be honest it may not be the remote. The whole unit is bad. Give it up and see if you can get a MP3 and a small set of speakers.

I have had the Bravia EX400 for about a week and love it. But alas, it does not have variable audio output, only one fixed audio out. This is suprising given all the other options this TV offers. I resorted to using the fixed audio output to my Yamaha receiver. I control the volume with my Yamaha remote. This is definitely worth doing since the TV's speakers have subpar sound quality.I agree with you R. Illingworth-variable audio output should be a standard feature. (Sony does have variable output in more expensive models.)
