I just picked up a ref 6 and want to use a remote IR sensor. The pre does not recognize it when I plug it in. I know on some gear like d'agostino you need to unplug and replug power. Tried that. Also sent some emails to audio research but no reply. Hopefully just a simple step I am missing. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried changing the batteries? What happens when you hold the remote in close proximity to the ref 6? Any response to the remote controls? I bought a used ref 6 earlier this year and the prior owner said he had trouble with the remote. Turns out it was a "stuck" key - i.e. one of the little buttons was "depressed." Once he popped it out, the remote functioned as it should.
