Outside Speakers for deck setup ?
I would like to put speakers outside for the deck and be able to control the volume of the speakers from outside. I know they sell volume control boxes where the speaker wire goes from the receiver to the box then to the speakers. However when I did the remodel I ran the speaker wire from where the receiver will be to the attic for the speakers. To add a volume box now would require cutting holes in new drywall in the kitchen and I don't want to do that.
I see some receivers come with a remote for the 2nd zone. Would that be an option I could look into? What about purchasing a 2nd remote if the receiver doesn't come with one for the 2nd zone? Is that even an option?
Thanks for any advice and help. Sorry if this is a ramble, I had to hurry to go catch a plan.

RF extender. I have my Denon in a closet with 2 zones. I purchased an RF extender from Amazon (About $35). It has a battery that fits into your remote and send the signal to the sensor in the closet. I can be outside listening to my outdoor setup and control everything...Music Choice channels, input sources, Volume.
That would be the easiest way. The sensor is small enough to work anywhere, so it shouldnt create an eye sore.
