How do I connect two preamps at the same time?

I have an Anthem AVM-30 and an Aragon 18k isp. The Anthem is a fine preamp with regard to movies and dvd's, but when listening to music, I feel that it is lacking. I was wondering how I can connect both preamps so that I may watch movies with the Anthem and listen to two channel music with the Aragon. I am currently using Aragon 8008 and 4004 amps along with Dahlquist DQ 10's for the front and DQ 20i's for the surround. Thank you, Aaron

Perhaps consider getting a preamp with HT bypass capability.

This allows a fairly "straight wire" unity gain path through the preamp for HT, but provides the purity of 2-ch playback you want for non-HT sources because the pre/pro isn't in the signal path.

Are you using the Anthem's analog direct mode for your 2-ch sources?
