I'm in the process of putting together a home theater and my center channel is going to sit on a stand in front of my Sony KP-46WT510 46" RPTV. I don't have it all put together yet, but I'm almost positive the center channel speaker is going to create probelms with (i.e. block) the IR sensor on my TV. I'm aware that remotes like an MX-600 would take care of this problem. And it seems like I've heard of stand-alone IR->RF units. But I'm looking for the least expensive and simplest way to take care of this....and I only need something to fix this one IR signal....I have no desire to control from another room or anything like that.
Is there some sort of stand-alone wire extension that can be mounted on the infrared sensor so the reception point could be moved a few inches away to allow a clean, unobstructed IR signal path? Something that wouldn't even mess with conversion from IR to RF.....just something that would relocate the IR reception point. Thanks.
