Jorsan, no, you connect the LT/RT front outputs from your HT preamp to one of the inputs on your tube preamp. Then the outputs from the tube pre go direct to power amp. This works best if tube pre has an HT bypass, but if not, set the tube pre at a set level, such as 12 o'clock and calibrate your HT system as usual. This setting is easy to remember. Now connect your CD player to the tube preamp. When listening to CD's, leave the HT pre off, and use just the tube pre. (make sure and turn the volume down first!).
How to . . . . ?
HI to all,
Is there any "logical" way to use one amp for music and another for surround sound with the SAME speakers?.
Im trying to configure a solid state system to be used as a cinema sound and other "tube" system to be used as a music system, BUT with just one pair of speakers. Using a switch box suppose it is not the ideal solution because could quality lost, and connecting two pairs of speaker cables (that comes one from each power amplifier) to the same speaker sounds not too good.
Your comments will be apreciated.
Happy holidays!
