Default Problem with Quad remotes

I am the proud owner of a Quad CD99 CD-P player, its Pre-amp, the
909
power amp feeding the latest 989 ESL Speakers.
However, from the start I have had a problem with the remotes, the
one
that came with the 99 can control everything, except the volume for
which I have to go to the other one, I presume the one that came
with
the amp (?). In any case I have two and I am told that one remote
should work all the system. When I said it did not do so I was told
they were not wired or connected together correctly so the local
tech
came down to me and at the same time got on the phone to Quad, (Rob,
for those that are familiar with the staff in the UK), and they
"compared notes". Never mind, the next day I was still unable to use
only one remote and was prepared to live with it for now, However,
today I found that whereas one remote used to switch the whole
system
on, now it does not switch on the preamp and now to cap it all, the
preamp is starting to switch itself off every now and again, what's
going on? I will of course get in the local dealer again but since I
had heard there had been problems with Quad remote controls units I
thought I might see if anyone has had similar problems with Quad.




Take all the batteries out of the remotes bar one and try that if it
fails try another
if it fails on all of
them.............................................. ..............
Buy an all in one remote from Argos

if it works tell rob he owes me a drink lol
