Denon AVR-X2300W - Zone 2 headphones

[ubern00b]

Hi all

Any idea if on an AVR with a 2nd zone, can you use headphones on the 2nd zone whilst still outputting to speakers on the 1st zone? Specifically related to the Denon AVR-X2300W but would be useful to know if other amps can or cannot do the same.

Cheers!

i have this amp , i'm sorry i really don't know (good question tho ) i would "guess" you need some sort of adapter to go into the zone two inputs

Yea I was wondering if you would need to use the pre-outs or something but then it would need to go into a headphone amp I would imagine.

Zone 2 Pre-Out is your friend.

That, connected to a suitable headphone amp, gives you the solution you are seeking based on the info supplied. Just remember that Zone 2 requires all analogue sources.

Thank you but that raises a concern or question. Zone 2 requires all analogue sources? So I couldn't output a PC to zone 1 and a PS4 to zone 2 for instance?

EDIT: I guess this is my answer here! http://denon.custhelp.com/app/answe...per-input-connections-for-zone-2-audio-output
