Strengths: Simple setup, decent range, compact, stylish.
Weaknesses: None...as of yet.
Summary: The "Universal MRF-300RFX Addressable RF Base Station" was an excellent addition to my recently upgraded audio system. And, before I go any further, everyone must understand that you must possess one of five compatible "Universal" remotes to communicate with the MRF-300. I'm using their low end MX-350 Osiris. One of my favorite past times is entertaining guests. Yup, outdoor parties. My A/V Receiver is capable of two separate Zones. Meaning, two independent speaker outputs from several different input devices. I have my patio speakers wired to "Zone 2" in the A/V Receiver so I can listen to (for example) CD's on the patio while people on the inside of the house can listen to the toner. I'm using both "Universal" products in a RF (radio frequency) format. Being outside, the factory IR (infrared) remote supplied with the A/V Receiver is not an option unless you open the door and stick your arm inside and aim toward the receiver. Humph. Anyway, the receiving distance of the MRF-300 is more than adequate for my application and the MRF-300 makes it possible to control all of my components from outdoors. Setup was simple. Mating the MX-350 to the MRF-300...totally painless. There is a small wired "flasher" that must be mounted (stuck) on the front of the IR receiver on each A/V component. Thus far, this has been a "set it and forget it" unit. The manufacturer has a nice website with a lot more information.
