Receiver-multi zone/multi-input
I have a 7.1 in the living room and 2 speakers outside.
My current Denon receiver has multi zone, but it only splits the 7.1 into 2 zones if desired.
The Denon AVR 3310 is $1500 and looks like it will accommodate both areas, but that is a lot of $$.
Does anyone have a better suggestion to be able to run the 7.1 and the 2 outside speakers as 2 individual zones?
Thanks for the help

Are you trying to get 2 zones with different inputs or 3 zones with different inputs?

(Now A is the 7.1 and B is the rear 2 speakers of the 7.1).
So it looks like the 7.1 uses zone B as its rears, otherwise a 5.1 with the 2 exterior)
Ideally A is the interior 7.1 and B is the 2 exterior speakers.

The Denon I mentioned the AVR 3310 is supposed to do it, at about $1500. Just looking for a more economical alternative (if one exists)

Thanks, I will look this one up and see how it compares in performance and price.

Does your current Denon have a "Zone 2" pre-out (my AVR-790 does)? You can connect this to an external amp and accomplish what you want, I believe.
Something like this, perhaps:
