TeeJay Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hi, wondering if anyone has any recommendations for power amps that can drive a pair of JBL Control One's and that has a remote control. I seem to be finding that only hi-fi amps come with remotes and don't seem to be powerful enough. Any suggestions Cheers TeeJay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.elsbury Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 What sort of remote? Wired? Wallplate? Wireless? Would it be possible to put a wallplate in with a volume pot, and have balanced audio going to/from the wallplate to the amp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Beesley Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 This may be of interest ... http://www.monacor.de/typo3/index.php?id=8...EN&typ=full - this can be used in conunction with a standard power amp to allow hard wired remote volume control.

The amp and speakers are going into part of a public foyer space so they don't want anyone to be able to control it. The amp only needs a single input and output but it does require a wire free remote - whether wireless or infra red.# Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage1 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 you could always just set the volume and screw a cover plate over the volume controll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkPAman Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 This Marantz Amp is 200W at 4 ohms, which, IIRC, is not far off for a JBL Control One. Alternatively, what is the source, could that be controlled remotely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, what is the source, could that be controlled remotely? It would certainly do, though the average £3000 ( :D ) price tag seems a little excessive. The signal coming in can't be remotely controlled unfortunately (part of the reason why a wire free remote is needed). I have to say, I though I was having an inept web search moment but maybe there just isn't that much call for amps with wire free remote - someone want to prove me wrong ...?
