Receiver +2ch pre on same speakers? Which one?


I'm looking to downgrade my ht setup to funnel funds to my 2 channel listening. I am currently using a a two channel preamp with a processor loop connected to a HT pre and three channel amp, using my music two channel amp in the process. Hope that makes sense...

Anyways the question is I want to downgrade to a receiver and sell of the HT separates, can I hook up my speakers to both the receiver and two channel amp? I would use the receiver when I watch a movie or tv etc and then turn it off to use my two channel amp when I want to use the stereo only. Is this possible? Any complcations or deteriotion in the sound?

And whil I have ou attention :-) , anyone recomend a good receiver for 500 for purely ht use, I don't need any good two channel performance as I have my big rig for that...Thanks for any advice!

You could just get a speaker switching box. I know it is not a perfect way to go, but it will get the job done. There are some better made ones out there. Just a thought.
