So i inherited an Amp when i purchased my house Its quite old only 2 HDMI ports.

I want to replace it. does an amp exist that i can play multiple outputs to different speakers?

In the lounge i have 5 speakers in the ceiling and a sub on the floor. There is also a speaker in the kitchen i'd like to zone so i can play music via that when doing dinner etc and the tv still play via the 5.1 speakers.

Needs to have 4 HDMI inputs as well.

Budget?

If you don't want to go Atmos and comfortable with no/short warranty, consider buying a used amp too.

Thats what I would have recomended. I have the 4200 (replaced by 4300 now), and find it fine.

How you liking the 2300?

Its a decent little unit. It replaced an older Denon unit. The GF finds it easy to use and no more pissing about with the tv to change sources. Zone 2 works well and is a breeze to get the different sources to play different things.

Was going to suggest the model you posted, i have the 2200 and it's also got the same features you want but just the older model. I just need some actual speakers to connect to it....laugh
