My plans are to get a pair of tube amps for 2 channel which i do not want running day and night . I can either unplug the receiver when not in use or swap the speaker cables each time. Lots of wear on the bannanas that way though . Unplugging the receiver is probably the best and safest way . I do not want to invest in expensive items to remedy this issue. ie: new bypass preamp.
Is this dangerous ?
I am trying to incorperate my 2 channel and home theater without comprmising sound .
Here is what i want to do : keep my 2 channel amp wired to the speakers as usual , the speakers are biwireable. I want to use the second binding posts on the speakers for a receiver for home theater .
Both sources would be wired at the speakers . I figure if only one source is powered on at a time this would work .probably use a independent powerstrip for each and keep the source i am not using turned off at the strip .
My main question is if both sorces would send a signal to the speakers at once what would i hear ? would it mix the two together and make some funky noise ? Would this damage the speaker ?
