Pardon my ignorance, but I need some help. I am installing 6 Polk Audio RC80i in ceiling speakers in my outdoor patio. I’m wanting a receiver that will allow me to control volume on 4 of the speakers in one area and two of the speakers in another area. Meaning, the bar side of my patio will have 4 speakers and the sitting area will have two. Needing to be able to turn the volume down on the two in the sitting area if need be.

Need this receiver to have FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity, as well as the ability to have a powered sub.

Is there a receiver on the market that will allow me to do this without breaking the bank? I don’t mind “going cheap” for a trial run and upgrading later down the road.

Seems like any standard 2-zone receiver with 7 channels will do this nicely. Run the receiver in 'all channel stereo' mode and use the extra speakers on zone 2. You can then run through sources as you choose. Many these days offer phone control and they still typically have a built in FM receiver.

Yamaha or Denon should do fine.
Pretty much anything on this page I would think would work...

Something like this should be just fine...
