Remotes are sold. Amp ($499) and EA3($450) still available.

I have the following for sale Control4 ea3 (OS 2.10) Control4 4zone matrix amplifier

Simply put, your opinion is disproven by fact.

This is repetitive over many posts....so I am finished.

My point is bad dealers lose business and go away or lose Control4. Don't go to someone who just took on the line if you want an advanced system. Don't hire Best Buy if you need more than a universal remote. I don't take a Lambo (oh no another car reference) to the kid down he street who could work on my kids Honda just fine.

That's just incorrect. Service isn't a luxury for dealers. Control4 actually models their system for less "truck roll"... Things professionals know...

Yes. You know that dealers and Control4 get calls from unsatisfied customers with other dealers... that many previous new/old Control4 dealers have gone out of business or lost their dealership. It's not like they just get one and its done.

We have reviewed the reasons why Control4 and Dealers don't want this and it doesn't have to do with profits.

and since that do do it 365 days a year still can't get it do well... it should be pretty easy to imagine there are things you don't know about.

Not really. I am fine with my own opinion. I also never previously stated I personally knew more than anyone here... I stated that end users really don't have the ability to understand a product a dealer would be interacting with on unique levels pretty much 365 days a year, year after year.

I never understand down votes in this forum. I am non-specific in my posts and when someone directly comments to me and I respond it's negative. Interesting...

...I'm not talking about installation ability. I think dealers could equally share days of stories about going to job sites for issues that were self inflected on the client end that they still don't understand... or being frustrated because they assumed they could do something without asking the dealer specifically when designing the project. It's an equal game.

Just you

The references to cars aren't about being able to do them yourself... and even so... I can't go put a remote starter in my new car, I need a certified garage for that.

The point is about changing company structure for sales... not self management. You're friends can buy something else. That's not what the product is. People refuse to believe that professionals know better about automation just because they can work the drop down menus in composer.

Good choice. I think a Macan GTS is next for me. My point is just because a demographic is available for business doesn't mean a company alters their product structure when it doesn't make sense. Bad "dealers" exist in all shapes. I didn't have a choice when replacing my HVAC during the holidays in freezing temps. End users tend to act like they are getting raked over the coals with cost. Not all things that cost a lot equal profit for the dealer...who is usually fronting some or all of the equipment cost and overhead costs.You have a choice of who you use. One bad dealer means nothing about the rest in the area. Do some research and have accountability if you want them to.

Porsche should be embarrassed that they don't want my business. I know myself and so many people who would buy a new $10k Porsche. I can even change the brakes on my own and the oil on my own..

No, the answer is no.

The reality is he is better off locating a local dealer or someone who can plan a trip on site. The fact that he purchased a system without understanding the product is why he needs to deal with someone directly who can fully understand his needs and how to properly deal with them.

Bass shakers are lots of fun. They're not as obnoxious as they sound. Great option for Jeeps too!

Gotcha. I think his point is if you want an action with the room powering on no matter what happens, his way is less work.

Why are you adding macros? If you need a action based off of a specific watch or listen choice using the room events "when audio/video" changes is a single window with limited lines of code needed.

Absolutely, but if you don't.. its possibly extra steps

Both ways are correct

Use the "When audio/video selection changes"
