I have a very strong flash light and can't see anything through the glass front when trying to find the exact IR sensor location. On some of my other devices the emitter needs to be right up against the glass to work. My guess is the glass is too thick and there is too much tint on it.

Hey Mike, I just bought 2 STR-DN1000 amps for my theater and family room. I am using 2 Logitech Harmony 900 remotes on both of them using the RF receiver except I am not using the IR Mini-blasters to control my devices. Instead I wired my own IR emitters from the RF receiver to my devices. I can put my eye anywhere around the IR symbol on the front of the receiver and still control my amplifier with ease. I have both of my amps sitting side by side being controlled respectively by their remotes with no issues of the signals being crossed over to the other amplifier.
just letting you know sony is lieing to you. these amps are easily controlled by IR emitters. Not sure what to do to help you, but I hope this info helps.
