My Onkyo 805 has been stellar, but it's getting long in the tooth. It lacks dynamic volume, dynamic EQ, music streaming, control via network device (android / tablet / ipad) and I've got a mickey-rigged external HDMI switch that uses the same codes as my LED light. Bother. Plus, it doesn't get hot enough anymore to evenly brown pancakes. Kidding. It's just as hot as it ever was.

Anyway, one of my desires is to use listen to digital content (i.e. devices connected via HDMI only) in zone 2 (I have a separate amp). This always used to be basically impossible; anything I want to hear in Zone 2 requires an analog input.

So, I want to be able to watch TV in the main room and stream audio using an Apple TV in Zone 2, for instance.

Has anybody solved this problem?
