I would like to buy a receiver that is dual zone and where I can have 2 Apple TV's; one for each zone.
Ideally, when I press the menu button on one remote it turns on the relevant zone amplifier, the relevant TV and the relevant Apple TV. When I put the Apple TV to sleep it turns off the relevant zone amplifier, the relevant TV and the relevant Apple TV.
My Yamaha RX-A3060 does this but only for one zone. If I want to watch TV in the second zone (my second zone is outdoors), I need to put the receiver in party mode (which means I have to watch the same thing in both zones). I also have to manually turn on or off the zone 2 amplifier and TV.
Any suggestions?
