Is this Possible????



Okay.....tell me if there's something wrong with this idea....

I have a Denon HT receiver that can function as a preamp. I take a 5 channel Rotel 1095 and let THREE of the channels run the mains and center home theater speakers. Then I let the receiver handle the two rears on it's own. NOW...the two unused channels of the Rotel go to a Rogue Metis pre-amp for running a pair of Revel M22's when I want to go for two channel music above and beyond the HT system. Is there any reason I can't split up duties for the Rotel in this manner, between 3 channels to HT processing and 2 channels to a pre-amp and better speakers?

Thanks

R.

Thanks for the comments!

I plan to use a Playstation 3 for the source in the home theater setup. I have a modded Oppo player as the source for the tube preamp. I used to have a expensive tube CD player, but found the 350 dollar Oppo was always better. I was running Maggie 1.6's at the time.

The main thing is that I have a good sized theater room. The theater speakers are great, but I'd like to keep Revel M22's at the ready for dedicated 2 channel listening. I want this to happen WITHOUT buying a second amp, if possible.

Thanks again for the comments!
