Am I going to blow somthing up?

I have 6 speakers wired in the ceiling of my home. Each pair has a volume control in the wall. I have two 5 channel carver amps. I have an old reciever which I am using the passive outputs and 2 Y cables ( each side ) to split the left and right channels 3 times. So that I can run each channel through my amps. Will this be o.k. especially when I turn off the volume on one of the wall controllers? Thanks for the help. I hope I am clear enough in the noob explanation!

Thanks for the response Chadnliz! That is correct on the wiring.I just split the signal to the amps. So I could have 6 channels.

Before I had 2 channels from the reciver, no amps, into a room selector. That sent the signal to each of the 6 speakers

My home was pre built with a "speakercraft s4 multi room speaker selector" Do you know anything about those? I was worried that when I took it out and used my set up there could be a problem using the volume controls on the walls.

Thanks agian for the help.
