How do I connect my outside speakers to my Onkyo TX-SR705 receiver to play outside, but not have the speakers (surround sound) on inside the house? My old JVC receiver just had an A/B button you pushed. The Onkyo is talking about a Zone 2 that only hooks up with analog connectors. My speakers are wired with 20 gauge wire that lead into the house and into my receiver. I just want to play music thru the 2 speakers that are wired on the back of my house when we are in the pool. I don't want to hear it in the house at the same time. Help!
The onkyo should still have a speaker A/B selector in the menu.
Check on the back panel for speaker A/B.
If it has or you decide to use Zone 2 you will need to set the sound programme to "stereo" so the rears and centre do not work.
You can still use a digital source.
You should be able to display the amp's menu on the screen.
Hook up "monitor out" (Yellow) via RCA connector to one of the "A/V inputs" (yellow) on the tv, this will show you a display of the menu and will make it eaiser to navigate.

HI pull down the flap on your amp and you will see buttons for zone 2 settings,press zone2 then level up this should work.
hope this helps .
