One commonly accepted approach is to use a receiver as the surround amplifier and a separate preamp/amp combination for two channel. You need a receiver with preamp outs and you feed the left and right channels to the preamp. Then you have a marking on the preamp volume that allows for a repeatable setup of all of the surround channels. The receiver volume controls the volume of all channels when doing surround. I have a Harman Kardon receiver for surround and a Parasound preamp / Legacy power amp combination for 2 channel. I think it works well.
How to get 2 Channel and Home theater in one packa
Question for a friend
Any suggestions to get excellent 2 channel and HT in one package. Serious 2 channel that means not Denon HT receivers or what ever.
Budged for amplification ~ $3000 so used pre power is possible.
Any ideas please, has to have 5 c or 2 c option in a single system. I am looking for the best possible way to get both:)
Thanks
