There might be a better solution. What amp are you using for your 2 channel listening? Does your HT Receiver have line-level pre-outs for the front speakers?
You might be able to re-cable it using the 2-channel amp to power the front L&R speakers for both 2-channel listening and when listening to multi-channel HT from the receiver.
