Adding a second set of 5.1 analog cables

Hello,

Could anyone please tell me how to connect a second multichannel component through a set of analog 5.1 cables to my B&K ref 50 processor? The problem is that the processor only has one set of inputs and are already connected to a DVD/audio.
Any thoughts?

Thank you.

Exceptions...

Meridian 861 can have multiple 5.1 analog inputs, and is an amazing pre/pro
99i personally use one and couldn't be much happier!)

Mark Levinson ML 40 also can have multiple 5.1 in's

Otherwise you are looking for and external switcher, Zektor as I said makes one, EMM labs makes the switchmaster which is a MC switching preamp but would be much more than you likely want.
