Onkyo 806 Zone 2 help

[jopela]

So I finally got around to installing speakers on my back porch and am very disappointed with the volume levels of Zone 2. When setting up the 5.1 I had to go into the speaker levels and increase them individually to balance the room and I had to go into the intellivolume for each source and increase the input levels there as well, are there similar settings for Zone 2, or is stock as good as it gets? (Yes I turned the volume up for zone 2, it is not nearly enough)

P.S. This is with any input source, including the radio.

BTW, Speakers are Polk Atrium 55 outdoor speakers.

I have the Atrium 45's and am using a Onkyo 100w amp (M-282) to power those and 2 other sets of speakers and I am getting more than enough volume.

What does it sound like when you use a CD for a source? I know radio and Sat for me has a much lower level that I need to increase the volume much more than a CD or my Fireball.

Also check your wiring to your speakers. You may have one of them out of phase which will cause this issue as well.
