I'm not home right now so this is from memory, but here are the basic responses:
Sync/unsync with the IR remote is straightforward: Settings > Synchronize > [choose player]. Unfortunately I don't remember which "direction" that sync works because I don't use that method often any more (I prefer The Synchronizer, see below). But try it and it will become obvious. Via the web ui, you should be able to select the 3rd player you want to add from the drop-down on the upper-right, and then go to sync (same drop-down menu) and add it to the other 2 that are sync'd. Plugins: I like The Synchronizer. I have defined several sync-groups that make sense given the way our house is laid out and how we use our SBs. Each group has a master and one or more players sync'd to it, so it's clear which playlist will get picked up when I sync them. For the shorthand names of the sync group I put the master player's name first and in uppercase, with other player names following in lowercase or mixed case. The Synchronizer's setup pages aren't works of art, but they are fully functional -- it's less complicated than it looks. Disclaimer: 99.9% of the time that I use The Synchronizer it is with the SB Controller, which I notice you don't have. I don't know how smoothly choosing a sync group works with the IR remote or web ui, but I expect it's fairly smooth. Personally I always prefer to control volume from within the room where the music is playing, but for controlling volume of another player via the IR remote you should look at the Other Players plugin. As you are probably aware you can sync the volume level of all players (ie, they all go up and down together) via the standard settings. And SyncOptions gives you the possibility of sync'ing volume but with different base levels for different players. -- aubuti Nothing high-end, but music anywhere I want it, and it's '100% wind powered' (http://www.cleancurrents.com/).
