Hi Everyone,
Second question today.
In researching possible receivers, one of my criteria is that I want the ability to run my 5.1 HT in my main room and, potentially simultaneously, run my second set of stereo speakers in an adjacent room with music (the kids watch videos in one room, the adults read and listen to jazz in the other). The two receivers I'm considering, the Yamaha V661 and the Onkyo SR605 both seem to have this capability, but the specs I found for the Yamaha on Crutchfield say this about dual-room/dual-source audio:
"dual-room/dual-source audio (powered and fixed line-level stereo audio output for 2nd room; using powered 2nd-room output allows 5.1 home theater in main room)"
Where it says "powered 2nd-room output...", does that imply that I need separately powered speakers for the 2nd room if I want to accomplish my goal (which I don't currently have).
Thanks,
Ben
