The Russound SLM-1K packages a full infrared repeater system so a remote can keep controlling equipment that has been moved out of sight. At the viewing location, the slim SLM-1 receiver mounts on or near a TV bezel and picks up commands from almost any IR remote. Its wideband reception is designed to ignore the noise from LED, LCD and plasma screens and from fluorescent and compact fluorescent lamps, a common source of IR repeater problems. The receiver's cord runs back to the CB-140 connecting block, which sits with the AV gear and distributes the commands to four IRE-1 emitters. Each emitter attaches over a component's IR sensor, has a blocking cover to stop stray signals, and outputs from front and rear so it can also be mounted inside a cabinet. An IR-confirmation LED on the block helps during setup and troubleshooting. The CB-PS supply powers the system, and colour-coded 3.5 mm plugs make the whole kit plug-and-play.
