Connection help

I dont think im explaining my problem correctly. What I want to accomplish is have the pre go directly to the amp running the fronts at the same time have the HT receiver go to the center, the rears and the two main fronts. Sorry if I confused my request
thanks

Now we are on the right track everyone. The only issue i have ewith connecting the HT receiver which for clarity is a rotel 1570 into one of the preamps inputs which is a rogue metis is I use NOS tubes in the pre and dont want to wear them out watching TV, movie etc.
Bob's post about sharing the fronts is the crux of the situation. I want the amp for music only.
I was wondering if I used Y connectors at the power amp and ran ics from both the pre and HT receiver to the amp that way if it would work better than a speaker switch
thanks, I almost have it figured out

Thanks gent! Now Im making progress. I think I prefer the line level switch. Would you say the one listed is best, or should I look somewhere else
thanks
