Restaurant/outdoor deck/beach receiver recommendations

[Capt Odyssea]

Friend is opening a beach restaurant bar, of course leaving audio to the last!
(could have pre wired months ago!)
Polk audio atrium speakers outside, a couple subs under the deck,
Wanting a receiver with like 3 zones for different sound levels.
Inside, deck and projecting to the beach.

Inside they were thinking bluetooth but that brings its own power wiring challenge so will prob hard wire.

I was thinking a yamaha receiver but don't need surround/theater frills. Maybe a higher end P.A. system?
Wanting good Hi Fi sound tho,

While I cant specifically suggest a brand or item, I can suggest you stay away from home/consumer units and go with a professional model.

Playing music in a business requires the purchase of special music products, such as BMI services. The music is copyrighted and public performances that are not paid for, violate such laws. While few businesses follow the rules, all it takes is the wrong person to walk in. I hear the fine is $10,000. The same goes for TV. If you have TVs in the venue, you must subscribe to a commercial TV rate from a local provider or you are, again, violating copyright laws.
