Hmar,
Here is an example, I am running a Threshold T 2 analog
pre-amp for my 2 channel duty. I am running my Cal Audio
SSP 2500 with a set of 2 RCAs plugged into the front left
and right outputs of the Cal SSP to the HL4 input of the Threshold T2. The T2 when the volume is set to -18 is at
unity gain or HT pass through on some preamps. I then have my surround cables hooked up to the Cal directly and the
digital signal from the dvd player plugs into the Cal. If
playing 2channel SACD, it would be plugged into the T2 as
would CD playback using analog.
I agree with the post above that your better off keeping
your 2 channel pre but I would not use a cheap AV pro through it for HT. You can have the best of both worlds by using a very good 2channel pre and a very good SSP instead
of a cheap AV pro.
Hope this brief explanation helps
