My BAT VK30SE has theater bypass, but I don't use it anymore. Instead, I run my home theater front pre outs into the SE inputs on my Bryston 4B SST2, and run the 2 channel preamp into the balanced inputs. When I want to do theater, I just flip the input switches to SE and when I listen to 2 channel, I flip it back. That way the systems are isolated but I still get the benefit of the Bryston and Maggies in the HT setup.
