Need a little help


Hello everyone. Somewhat new to this hobby and need a little advice. My current setup is a 2.1 channel setup consisting of a Pioneer sclx-904 av receiver that I'm using as a preamp, 2 identical Anthem power amps that are feeding a pair of B&W bookshelf speakers (they are biamped). My question is this; I recently acquired an Nad preamp. Can this NAD be integrated into my existing system somehow?  What would I be gaining? I read that an external preamp can be hooked up to an av receiver, how would I do that?? Also the NAD only has one set of preout's, and does not have a dedicated sub out, I still want to use both Anthem amps and my Klipsch subwoofer, but how do I achieve this with only one set of preouts( left/ right) on the NAD?? Any help is much appreciated. Thank you!

You have what you need using the 1:3 splitter recommendation and keeping the Pioneer avr out of the mix for many reasons others have suggested.

WHY are you thinking you still need the Pioneer AVR in the mix, and for some other reason you’ve not shred yet here? For what purpose does it still serve?

@spoonman16510 Still confused 

Share more.  What part of the replies are you still confused about?

Several replies above trying to restate the same thing for you, so it's best to come straight out and share what does not yet make sense or creating confusion. What is about the "splitter" that is still not making sense or requires additional explanation in a different way perhaps.  If you share more, plenty of members here to help.
