does this receive have true 2nd zone ?

No. You can use two of the channels as a Zone 2; however, this receiver is not capable of operating both zones simultaneously. You have to only use one at a time. I'd recommend looking at the Denon receivers if you need a true 2nd zone.

I have the one hookup for my family room and the second wired to a splitter that feeds my basement, master bedroom and out side by the pool. They all play the same thing but can be turned off separately. Can not tune to a 2nd separate source.

I don't believe so. THe sources I see for Zone 2 are: Internet Radio, Pandora, SiriusXM, Media Server, Flickr, Source?, Blu-ray, iPod/USB, CD, Tuner, Online Music, Bluetooth.

Yes, you can use just Zone 2 and keep Zone 1 off. I just tried this before answering your question. Not sure what you are referring to re analog. However, Optical/coaxial digital and HDMI audio sources are not output to Zone 2. You cannot output any video signal to Zone 2. You can select the following input sources for Zone 2: Analog audio input (AV 5-6, Audio 1-2); Tuner (FM/AM radio); USB (including iPod/iPhone); Server; Airplay; Internet Radio (Pandora, Sirius, Internet Radio, etc.). There are some restrictions about playing different sources in Zone 1 & Zone 2. For example, Airplay is available in Zone 2 only when Airplay playback is ongoing in Zone 1. If your laptop is used as a server, you can play music to Zone 2. (I have not been able to get Server to completely work. I just need to spend more time looking into this to see what the laptop setup has to be to make this function work.) I have a standalone CD player and I hooked it up to AV-5 so I could hear it in Zone 2. To make everything work with this receiver, you do have to pay attention to how you hook things up - especially where Zone 2 is concerned. This is not a big deal but it does require your attention. I also use the Yamaha app on my Android tablet and I find this very useful for controlling Zone 2 when I am on my patio. Hope I've been somewhat helpful.

Yes it will. There is a feature called Zone Followers that will enable events on a zone open/close regardless of the state of the system.

Hi Ced. It has second zone pre-outs for audio and video, allowing you to "push: your music and movies to another room.

Yes it does, we ordered two and had that problem so I contacted the seller and they sent me another one with a different frequency.

Yes, but only one per zone. Draws a lot of power. If I have it on and vacuum or run microwave it will trip my breaker. It HAS to be plugged directly into the wall.

yes, my zone 2 plays digital with this denon, I use it with an apple tv. my prior denon I owned did not as it only was analog for zone 2.

Yes, in conjunction with the Honeywell HZ432 panel and wireless adapter you can have up to 4 wireless zones installed. They will not interfere with each other - each gets set as a seperate zone.

The Onkyo 616 does have both Zone 2 and Zone 3 line outs. I have never tried to incorporate a Zone 2 into my home, but I would suspect it might omit some features but be fine for basic playback. Some reviews online indicate that the setup could be a bit challenging. You might download the manual for the 616 and peruse the procedure to see if you want to give it a try.

Yes the 2nd panel is set with the default 1234 pass code. Once you have synced with the main panel you can change the pass code on the 2nd panel to match what you set for the main panel.

I bought one 2 years ago it worked for 6months. Only one zone would work! I called for replacement the company was not willing to do anything except give me one for 20.00 off!

I am not sure but would suggest just calling Honeywell and run that by them. I do not think it would, but I have one of each of these in two different homes and it is great. I would highly recommend but not sure about multiple zone question. It is very user friendly one set up.

In the Denon app you can choose whether the internet radio plays from zone 1 or zone 2. If you use airplay, I think it defaults to zone 1.

Unless in party mode(zone 1 and 2 linked); zone 2 will only play analog from local sources. Zone 2 will, however, play internet(pandora, airplay, spotify, etc) and network media independent of zone 1. You will have to step up to the A1030 to get digital zone 2 from local sources.

Thanks for your question. This is not a zone-free player. It is a wonderful player.

It does have 4 zones. But not independently programmable. Example: If you set zone 1 then zone 2 will trigger on after zone 1 stop time. So 1 start time for sequence of all zones. I suggest reading manual on this for your application.
