A:Answer Yes, it can do 7.2, or even 5.2. You can set zones. Zone 1 would be for the 7.2 application. Zone 2 could be used for 2 speakers in another location, like on a patio. I have a Pioneer 9.2 Channel. I have 3 zones: 1 is 5.2 for my living room. Zone 2 is for 2 ceiling speakers on my covered patio. Zone 3 is for 2 outdoor speakers on the back of my house facing the pool. Pioneer has a good app I use to control the receiver from an iPad or iPhone. Hope this helps.
