150 & UIRT....Girder not required?

[capone]

Do you need Girder if you have 150 & remote, but you're adding a UIRT? It would just blast the haup IR, right? And you would only need Girder if you had, say, the FM 150?

I just added spdif output to my board, and finally have the receiver plugged in, and the sound is great. That was, until I realized I couldn't turn it down anymore ;]

I'm between getting a USB sound device w/ an optical out and the UIRT and keeping the spdif plugged in. I figured it would be nice to have one remote at this point.
