As in the case of Onkyo usual, the amplifier by RI can-connecting other Onkyo components "remote control". The receiver can be switched on automatically via the IPM function when the TV is on. So you have the full sound immediately. In addition, the receiver has "MRX" (Multiple Source Remote System) on board. That is, you can place the speaker pair "B" (it is called "remote" here) in another room and use it there completely independently of the main room. For example, listen to a CD in the main room and to the radio in the next room. The volume of the speakers is also regulated independently. An additional remote control in the adjoining room can also be "connected" or other devices can be controlled via additional devices.
