Ideas for easy A/B comparison of amps ?

I have a denon 3311ci receiver with preamp outputs and a pair of speakers. Looking to upgrade to external amps for stereo. I will be ordering two different amps looking to do a A/B comparison. Would like to switch easily from the listening position.

Un/Re-plugging cables is not the way i want to go. Want to do spontaneous switching.

Thoughts ?

I use a Niles DPS-1 to select between amps. I had to rig up an adapter so I could connect banana plugs too it but it works great.

Very well built and quite solid. If you need something fancier there is the Niles SPK-1

It is a bit more complex IMO.
