The SpeakerCraft EZ-Pad A/V Remote Control. Dude, how could anyone, and we mean anyone, dare to call something like this an ‘EZ Pad’? It’s like calling the Space Shuttle a microlight. Jeepers. $524.99.
The SpeakerCraft EZ-Pad system is an expandable IR repeating system that uses an RS-485 communication protocol between the keypads and controller, letting users press buttons on an easy-to-read keypad or even use a component’s original infrared remote to send commands to another room. The EZ-Pad Controller is a 6-zone central system that allows remote control of components using wall-mounted keypads, which are sold separately.
