Allright… looking to upgrade my system at home and was wondering if this setup would work.
I am looking to get the Anthem MRX 740 receiver. I read this on it’s specs: “Channel reasignment: MRX Series Receiver channels can be assigned in many ways. Unused amplifier channels can be re-assigned to Bi-Amplify demanding front speakers, power surrounds, presence speakers, or a second zone”
Would it then be possible to set up this receiver with a Sonos port and then three zones:
- primary zone set up with 5+1 speakers
- secondary zone with one of the left-over outputs reassigned to a single stereo speaker in the bathroom
- third zone with the last output reassigned to a single stereo speaker in the office
Would I be able to control output for the different zones from the sonos app? My guess is that it’s a no but figured I would ask if there’s any chance of getting it to work. This way I would avoid getting a sonos amp as well. Otherwise that would be the other solution, connecting the single stereo speakers to a sonos amp and my living room receiver to a port. But this would mean one more device and I would rather have my receiver drive all my speakers :)
