On a serious note, your setup sounds great, but over my head. How much time would it take a normal mortal to figure out how to configure all that stuff if I don't have a brain in my basement and the one in my head is only marginally useful?

It sounds alot harder than it is. It's actually pretty easy
1. Put Cable Box, DVD Player, CD Player, VCR etc. in Basement or other area away from TV
2. Run Cat five wire from the IR eye (location near TV) to Receiver area where
"The Brain is"
(The Brain comes with the IR Receiver)
3. Plug in all Components to Receiver
4. Attached to "
The Brain" are wires that attach to the IR eyes on each Component. Simply Attach wires to IR eyes on Components.
5. Run HDMI Cable from Receiver to TV (HDMI will handle VIDIO and SOUND but not 5.1 DDS. You will need 5 speakers and a Subwoofer for DDS.
6. Turn on and enjoy!
7. If you want 5.1 DDS Run Speaker wire to Speakers from Receiver
