That is an interesting theory - setting the level by individual switch. Let us know if it works - I have been using a Maestro dimmer for several years. I never could get it to work with the 880 though? Seems I remember that even though I tried to make it an individual activity, something screwy would always happen - like the TV or receiver would turn off when all I wanted was to dim the lights. Any advice on that?
