Using Node 2i for Zone 2

Answered

I have an Anthem Receiver with Zone 2 line out.  I have  Node 2i which I am not using much as input.  I have speakers that I want to put in another room about 35' away, and due to design of the house, very difficult to get wiring there ( part of house built on concrete slab) 

( One of my options is cabling speaker wires outside the house but not sure if that's an ideal solution) 

Could I connect the Node 2i to the Zone 2 Line out on my receiver, and send signal to a PowerNode connected to my extension speakers? ( I know there are a number of other solutions, ie buy powered speakers, or other options,  but I would ideally like to be able to listen to the same music on both sets of speakers) 

 

Any thoughts/ suggestions would be much appreciated.

  Hi John,
  
  That is one way of doing it. You can group your players together (NODE 2i and POWERNODE), select the source you want, and then enjoy the audio.
