Please HELP.....system hook configuration


I want to keep my two channel audio system intact.

Is it possible to have your audio preamp between your AV Processor and main left and right channel speakers? Wouldn't this leave your 2-channel audio system untouched?

Example: AV Processor output to surrounds and center channel to a three channel amp, the left and right main output to the tape input to your audio preamp. Audio output from your audio two channel amp to main left and right speakers. If you made certain that the volume level is always in the same position when using home theater, wouldn't volume levels remain constant after system setup?

If this would not work properly, can you please explain why, and if it would work, why don't more use this configuration instead of being so hung up on analog passthough. I do understand that with DVD-A and SACD this configuration would not work.

Thanks,
DH
