Controlling Marantz amplifier using Arduino via “Remote” socket
Rotel still allows this, at least on models a few years old. I have a RA-1572 amplifier, and it's a joy to work with. Plug a serial or a network cable, and start talking to it. It supports the same commands over RS232 or TCP (basic TCP, not HTTP or what have you – just don't open too many connections too often, or it will choke). They also support IR IN / OUT, but I've never attempted to work with those. I seem to remember that the IR codes were documented somewhere, but I can't remember where I've seen that (I've never needed them).
The protocol is documented here: https://www.rotel.com/manuals-resources/rs232-protocols. The TCP commands are the same as the RS232 commands, the docs say on which port it listens, etc.
I've started building a "remote control" to an amp to be used from an I3 bar: https://github.com/vladvasiliu/amp-mate-rs (older Python version which doesn't do much: https://github.com/vladvasiliu/amp_mate).
