My old Denon receiver had an a/b button. A controlled the speakers in my den and b was for the outdoor speakers. With the Yamaha, I have to section off my outdoors as zone 2 speakers.
My question, will I be able to play my CD player on only zone 2 (outdoor) speakers or will I have to hook up a separate component as a source to play out of zone 2? My neighbor seems to think this is the case. He also thinks that zone 2 speakers can only be fed with a analog source. True?
