“Can this drive a single set of patio speakers? Was given this reciever and I only need it to for the radio and Bluetooth for my patio speakers (not surround sound). Would this reciever do the job? I see that the speaker connections are labeled for surround, not just a single set...thanks for the feedback everyone!”

Yes it will just go to setup with the remote. It will be on speakers when it comes up then go to the right(just next to the enter button) to configuration and turn off the surround, center and sub woofer speakers just leaving the right and left speakers on. It will be easier to do this if you hook up a TV and use the on screen menu. it will also show on the display on the unit and when your done only the R and L will be illuminated.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That's not a problem. Every modern amplifier will run in stereo mode. As a matter of fact, I'm not big on surround setups so I'm currently just driving a pair of tower speakers. Just make sure you hook your wires into the Front R/L terminals.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Why these receiver for 2 speakers? Buy a cheaper one! But I think it should work with 2 speakers
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This unit will not do Bluetooth by its self, but it is capable of simple stereo output. In output select stereo, and just use the left and right front outputs for your speaker connection. Keep in mind that it is important to keep the positive (red) wire from the amp to the positive input of the speakers.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Shouldn't be a problem just use it in stereo mode
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes. It has an option for 2 speaker stereo sound.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, the receiver will function in "stereo" mode. Set the audio preset to 2.1 stereo. It will operate using only left/right rather than full surround.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Almost every middle class receiver like this would have different zone settings. You can choose to listen to 5.1 in the house or 2 patio speakers outside by just changing zones.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes
