Hi,
I am very close to pulling the trigger and buying a Harmony 880 remote control but the problem I am facing is that all of my equipment is a little behind me in my theater room. So I would have to always point the remote behind me to control everything.
Is there a better (and cheap way) to resolve this so that I can aim the remote in front of me and it will still hit all of my equipment without any issues.
I have attached a picture of what my room looks like so you can see what I mean by the equipment being behind me a little.
I was wondering if I could use these to accomplish it:

I currently have one transmitter and two receivers that I use to send IR signals out from my USB UIRT to control my blinds in my kitchen and this works great. Will it work if I were to use 2 or more transmitters?
Also, I noticed that on the back of the receiver there is a spot to plug in something. Is this where I could plugin a IR distribution block and then take an IR emitter and attach it to each component? If so, what all would I need?
I would appreciate some guidance on this from people that are already past this hurdle.
TIA
