This allows centralized control of a complete system, and also allows some of the basic functions of other NAD components (such as a CD player or cassette-deck) also equipped with IR IN to be controlled with an NAD system remote control. To function with such other units, connect the C 425's IR IN to the IR OUT on the other unit. IR IN connectors can be daisychained, IN to OUT, so that a whole system can be controlled from the remote control facilities of one unit.
