Posted April 21, 200817 yr Hi, I know that the russound CAV6 has been mentioned before and I have spotted a serial driver for it.I just wanted some feedback on the driver, Do you lose some functionality, for example does the control4 remotes have volume feedback etc? Can the russound keypads be taken away? I would rather use control4 amp and seperate video matrix but CAV6 seems a cheap video/audio solution.Any comments will be appreciatedRich
April 25, 200817 yr I have used the CAV 6 with my C4 setup since day 1 (about 2.5 years now), and it works great. C4 switches the zone output, controls the volume, works like a CHAMP!I actually still use the Russound in wall controls in a few rooms, since they came with it and provide volume and source switching. Also, late last year I added Russound's VM1 that switches HIDEF component....the nice thing about this is that I didn't have to touch the programming,since it responds to the source inputs sent to the CAV....So between the 2 I can switch 6 HiDef video sources into 6 zones with audio.....pretty nice....Dave
April 25, 200817 yr Unless it is a 2-way RS232 driver, you will not get volume feedback. Spend the extra dough now and I promise you won't regret it.
