I want to add 2 speakers 12 feet away on rear porch. Connected to zone 2 on Onkyo receiver. Will signal go through sliding glass door?

Sorry, unfortunately I am not sure. I had to return my unit due to distorted signals from outside interference.

Yes i have no problem with double pane glass door. My transmitter is inside of glass front tv enclosure in living room and the reciever is outside on the patio 18 foot away. My home has exterior stucco walls and a sliding glass door

Dear Plum, Thanks for your inquiry. You can do a wide variety of speakers, from floorstanding to bookshelf, to satellite speakers for this receiver. As far as Bluetooth speakers are concerned, you cannot send a Bluetooth signal to both the receiver and to Bluetooth speakers at the same time. Bluetooth speakers normally have a range of 25-30 feet from the device you are sending signal from. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance. Regards, Eric Cohen World Wide Stereo

I'd set the Onkyo A/V receiver to 'small' mains and just connect it's sub-woofer output to the LFE input on the Polk PSW505. Play something 'bassy' and switch the phase 180 degrees to see which produces the greatest amount of bass - leave it there. Adjust the bass level as desired. Remember to secure nick-nacks on shelves near it... they can and will vibrate off!

It doesn't matter your speakers, that's your receiver. This only allows you to have background sound outside or in a hallway. Not for jamming out.

For my other Onkyo receiver in order to get zone 2 to work, you must use an audio component wire connection (two wires typically one red one white) - not the HDMI. In my setup for example, I have all my devices connected into my TV (ROKU, cable, bluray) - including my receiver (ARC from receiver). I also ran the two wire audio component from my TV to my receiver. My zone 2 source is setup as TV - then whatever I watch on TV (ROKU, cable, bluray) is available through zone 2. In the receiver model I have I needed to select power zone 2 on in the Receiver menu also.

Not really. It prevents you from having to run speaker wires from your amplifier (usually located in the front of the room) to the back wall. In my case I have hardwood floors on a raised foundation. So option 1 would be to go under the house to directly connect my rear speakers to my amplifier located on the front wall. Or option 2, run wiring along the baseboards in casing to hide them (or make them less obvious). Option 3 could be to drop wiring from the attic, however of it's an external wall, insulation will prove difficult to route through. If I had carpet as before, I could pull up the carpet and run the wires from the front of the room to the back. At least with the receiver plugged into the back wall, you can hide your speaker wires behind a couch or inside baseboard casing that could hopefully be out of view.

The zone 2 I am not setup yet, and 7.1 channel I don't know why I have out put only 5.1 or 5.2. I check the seting but still don't know how to get the out put for 7.1. I have 7 speaker and 2 subwoofer still try to setting up. I will let you know when I got it.Best RegardMinh

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.

It works pretty well. I haven't noticed any delay yet - in my case, zone 2 speakers are about 4 meters away from zone 1 and not in same room. I've been using this receiver since may last year.

My camera is just over 40' from the receiver and it is outside. signal passes through walls, doors, doorwall without any issues. the picture and sound are great.

Just connect your left, center & right from your receiver with speaker wire. 14 gauge worked fine for me.

I don't have a second floor but I do have several doors that the signal has to pass through with one being a really heavy metal front door and it has never failed me. I also carry the receiver outside to the patio and that's about 30 yds. from the front door through the house and it's brick. hope that helps give you an idea!

Yes. Distance is subject to line of sight and any obstacles in the way. If your final signal is marginal, then you can add another on the other end to strengthen the signal.

I'm not sure how the walls would affect the signal. Our transmitter is outside next to a tree; our receiver is on a window sill inside our log home and they are more than 50 feet apart. I hope this helps :) Our logs are 8 inches in diameter & the glass is triple-pane; signal makes it to the receiver just fine.

I don't know, but I understand that there is limited range. So if your neighbor's mailbox is 100ft from your receiver, you should be ok. If it did go off, you could move your receiver further away in your house.

Dear Sir or Madam, The footage limitations of this speaker is 10m under no obstacles. If it meets door or wall, the signal will get weak. Thanks. Best regards.

If I understand your question correctly, yes. I use mine with a Onkyo receiver. The transmitter is wired to the receiver and the speaker is at the rear of the room. My fronts and center are connected in the conventional wired manor. This is the only rear I use and it provides a very good effect all things considered.
