Hi Paul - the Mini T does not have any remote capabilities, but if the headphone output from your TV is variable (which most are) the level to that output will go up and down with the master volume so you can leave the Mini T set at a moderate level and adjust the overall volume on the TV itself. Hope this helps - let us know if you have any more questions.

Yes you can. If your tv has a 3.5mm headphone/earphone jack. Once you have plugged it in, turn the volume on the tv up to half, and gauge the sound with the volume control on the Altec speakers. Then you can use the tv remote to adjust volume from there.

I have mine connected via hdmi and can use my tv remote to control volume. There is a slight delay between when the tv is turned on and when the sound bar turns on.

The amp has a wired remote for the bass channel, but it has to be purchased separately, it is only for the bass channel, it is only around $30

The remote control does adjust the volume, but it has to be pointed directly at the IR receiver on the amp.

If you connect your TV to the amp via the headphone out jack on your TV, you can control your volume through the TV AND through the amp.

YES! This is one of the few current models which can directly control a set of "powered" speakers. Use the Left & Right RCA outputs (you may need a dual RCA to stereo mini phone plug cable) to connect to your powered speakers. In the television's menu system, turn the Internal Speakers "off" and change the Audio Output from "fixed" to "variable" so that you can control the volume of your powered speakers with the remote's volume control.

You don't, with this amp. You'll either have to use the sub's own volume knob if it has one, or use the receiver directly to the sub, and control the sub's level through the receiver.

That's how I use mine. (FYI - with an older HDTV set - since the output is external - you might not be able to control the volume of the sound without adjusting the amp's control. That is a bit of a pain.)

Yes, you can, but you won't be able to control volume unless you get an additional piece like this: Behringer HA400 4-Channel Stereo Headphone Amp. Don't forget to get an SPDIF cable to go from TV to this box (and your TV must have an spdif out) - Good luck, works great for my wife.

I haven't been able to, yet anyway. I'm still using two remotes. Cable remote for the TV and the Coby remote to control the volume. The volume button on the TV remote doesn't seem to do much. That being said, I'm sure there's a way to program them but I haven't taken the time to figure it out.

The tv volume won't flow through to the speakers. However, if you always want your speakers at the same volume, I suppose you wouldn't need the volume remote. I like to adjust volume from tv to movies to music, but that's just me.

The unit's remote allow you to adjust volume and other audio controls like skip a track, however is really cheap and range is not that good, you can't turn on / off the amp from the remote

Yes, this amp has a remote that controls most functions-- the remote does NOT have an on/off button, though. Weird, but true...

Most TVs have rc (red/white) output so yes as that is the input to the amp. It has a volume control but the TV would control the volume as well

I don't believe so. This simply converts digital output to analogue. In my setup the volume is controlled through a separate in-line pre-amp. Hope this helps.

We have only used the volume control on the sound bar remote so I do not know if it is possible to integrate it into the TV remote.
