That's the kind of situation where you have the safe full of gold but it's locked and you have no key.Zippy Zapp wrote:I just picked up a N6 from a local thrift store for like $3. It is just the unit and doesn't have the remote or the AC Adapter. It looks like it is just a 12v DC 1.2A adapter I am guessing center positive. I think I have a 12v 3amp adapter that should work. If anyone has the specs that would be helpful. Does the remote do anything special that you need it for? Haven't tested it yet but hopefully it works.
The remote is paramount with this machine. Only it allows you to go to the menu to change resolution, refresh rate, color balance, contrast, brightness, etc...
Without the remote you can easily change the input source, channels and volume if you use the cable tuner but that's where it ends.
Also, if you have a 12V power supply, yes I can confirm you need a center positive. The original provided PSU is rated 12Vdc 1.5A even if the box itself says 1.2A.

(you can mouse over the image to see the technical details - Yes this is exactly what I have)
I was unable to find a remote by itself on eBay. It is very small, slim and uses a watch battery.
You can see it clearly here on this photo I found on a french tech stuff forum:
