(The Brain comes with the IR Receiver)
3. Plug in all Components to Receiver
4. Attached to "The Brain" are wires that attach to the IR eyes on each Component. Simply Attach wires to IR eyes on Components.
5. Run HDMI Cable from Receiver to TV (HDMI will handle VIDIO and SOUND but not 5.1 DDS. You will need 5 speakers and a Subwoofer for DDS.
6. Turn on and enjoy!
7. If you want 5.1 DDS Run Speaker wire to Speakers from Receiver

Thanks NJ. I might try it out when my mother in law moves out fairly soon and we can move the Pioneer and the pool table into the basement.
