I am not sure where to post this, but I'll put it here and if there is a better place could someone please move this there,
I am trying to figure out my outdoor sound system, I am not very familiar when it comes to AV equipment, so I thought I would ask you guys what I need to buy to get the result I am going to explain, I am going to mount two speakers on either end of my pool house, two speakers on either end of the deck, and two speakers at the deep end of my pool, so a total of six speakers and they will be spaced out equally around the entire perimeter of my pool area, I hang a projection screen off the deck for outdoor movie nights, I am trying to figure what I would need to get for a receiver to be able to control all the speakers without just wiring them in series and losing sound quality. What do I need to look for in a receiver/amp and speakers to be able to control different zones of audio, maybe not have to use all the speakers on movie night, but for music I could have different levels of volume in different areas around the pool. Like I said, I am not good with AV equipment so I am not sure if this is even possible??
