If I am watching a football game via cable box (HDMI) in my living room can the Zone 2 (patio) deliver the same audio signal?

Yes, it is possible. You should press "Option", then select "All zones stereo", then "Start" plus Enter y you will see that zone 2 input (I mean the source zone 2 is paying) will change to the same input zone 1 is playing. The only consideración you have to keep in mundo is that you can not use some

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.

If your cable box has HDMI output,then it should be no problem.......otherwise you can use the component outputs on the cable box.

Yes, this is the way I use it. I use the surround sound inside and zone 2 is set up outside.

Yes, you can listen to music on zone 2/3 and watch a movie in zone 1, you just have to select a different source for each zone using either the remote or the front panel of the receiver. The instructions in the manual explain the procedure.

Does your cable box have an optical out? If so you might be able to use that as your output to the sound bar.

Yes. That is the same setup that I have. TV above the fireplace, audio tower to the right with Cable Box, Receiver, and Xbox all in this unit. My cables are just running up my mantle to the back of my TV.

Yes that will work. I now have my signal split 4 ways near the cable box and then 2 ways later in the house and the do not see degradation in the signal. I have both the 2-port and 4-port version of this product. I can watch 4 TVs all with the same picture. There may be slight delay in showing the picture as the HDMI synchronizes but once complete it works flawlessly.

I'm sorry, you've not given enough info for a positive answer. Are you trying to hook up a cable box to the transmitter in one room and the reciever to the TV in the living room? The link reciever uses RCA/Line level connections to the TV. If the TV in the living room is using the round co-ax cable then that TV would have the choice to watch the Link/line level input or the TV ant connector. If you can give more details, I'll try to give you a more accurate response.

Zone 2 only works with analog audio (RCAs), so the sources connected using HMDI won't be available to Zone 2. So in your example, you need to connect your Blue Ray to the receiver using both the HMDI and analog connectors so the audio can be available in zone 2, the same is valid for the other sources, the exceptions are the USB and NET sources that are internal to the receiver and are available all time for Zone 1 and 2. Hope this can help.

Probably just fine. I use it with a 50' cable for getting signals while tailgating so I know you can have a long cable and have used it indoors as well.

Yes it does. Only zone one though but if you have the marantz app for your phone, you can turn on zone two from there.

Thank you. But if I did have a cable box this would work for live tv? Football season is just around the corner. Thank you again

The answer to your question is no, but if you change to game on output 1 and tv on output 2, I think it will do it. I wanted to play music on one and watch tv on the other as in sports and It will not do it. It is not independent for the 2 hdmi outs, they are linked sort of.

If you have a cable box that is HDMI you can connect it to that. It have an HDMI In/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.

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 know you can't send a digital sourced signal to zone 2 or three with the onkyo, don't know about the Denon. I have the Onkyo after looking at the Denon and could't justify the price difference since I didn't need internet radio. I'm really happy, I have no need of zone 2 or 3.
