I just recently configured my system in the way the OP descibed. It can be done safely. My solution was to use an old Adcom speaker selector box, disconnection everything internally and installing a break before make switch along with some really good speaker wire. Total cost to me was about 8.49 for the switch since I already had the rest. Easy project. Be really really sure none of the wiring is shorting across poles on the switch or puff the dragon comes to visit.
A rookie question re two amps, one pair of speakers
Hello fellow Audiogoners!
So I’d like to be able to power my B&W 683s from two different amps (not concurrently of course).
One amp would be for my 2 channel system and the other (a receiver) would be for my home theater system. So long as I’m not powering both amps at the same time, is it safe/ok/advisable to connect both amps to one pair of speakers?
I’d appreciate any comments.
Thanks much!
