“What? An over $600 receiver and no 2nd zone out?”

• If you are talking about HDMI... the Zone 2/3 feature is on the x3000 series or higher. If you are meaning 2 channel audio for a second Zone then the s960h can do that with the understanding that the main setup will be limited to 5.1.

• I wasn't talking about watching the same source in another room. I meant being able to play a different source in the rest of the house via a distribution amplifier for whole house music. Sony, Yamaha, and pioneer all have second zone/source outputs in a lower price range.

• From the manual: “You can simultaneously play back the same source in both the MAIN ZONE and ZONE2. You can also play back separate sources in the MAIN ZONE and ZONE2.” It can do 5.1 in zone 1 and stereo out to zone 2 simultaneously. You can do different sources for the zones.

• The Denon website says it can do a second zone: "Play the audio from your TV to all zones. Enjoy full discrete audio such as Dolby Atmos in the main zone for a totally immersed experience while playing the same source in the second zone. Select “Source” for the second zone to share the main zone audio. The AVR-S960H supports both HDMI and digital sources for your second zone."
