You two have me confused.
I used my 7200 for about a year in a 2 Zone configuration. The Zone 2 has its own remote. I don’t know about your model, but with the 7200, you go into the advance menu screen and enable it (which is just using the surround back channels for the second zone). There is a remote ‘remote’ sensor that plugs into the 7200 that the zone 2 remote talks to. After the second zone is enabled, I could select the source I wanted with the zone 2 remote and play at will. If you leave the second zone on, you can hear the same source in both zones, if you want. I could also have one source playing in zone 1, while a different source played in zone 2. Maybe I should take that back, it’s been a while, and I’m getting old. I may not have been able to listen to two different sources. I’ll have to check the manual and get back with that one.
Clear as mud?
