This is a really annoying problem I've noticed recently. There seems to always be an audio delay on Yamaha receivers, whether it's an analogue or digital source, it's always the same. If I have an Sonos connect being shared by the Yamaha and multi-room audio amp connected analogue, I can't get rid of the delay unless I set the amp top direct mode. This turns off surround speakers and subwoofer however. There are are often times when I have a media room adjacent to another room with audio. I could use party mode if the room is powered by Yamaha zone 2 but this adds complications to control and automation.
Why can't Yamaha simply get rid of this delay at least with analogue connections.
Is the source sending an analog signal? If not, use that, rather than digital.
Do these receivers have MusicCast? If so, why use Sonos?
