Satelite/S Video/Stereo Pre-Amp Connection Questio

I need advise as to how to run the following connects:
I have Direct TV box and want to run both S Video and Stereo from the box. The problem is that there are only 2 audio outputs from the box, and I need 2 to accompany the S Video connection to the TV, and 2 audio to run to the stereo pre-amp. I have a Sony Wega with audio outputs, but think the sound would be better if I came directly from the satelite box vs audio outputs from the TV to my stereo pre amp. Thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

I am sorry your satellite system lacks a toslink (fiber optic) output. Most of the more modern boxes do have this.

anyway, the above suggestion is a good one. Also, radioshack had a decent switchbox for not too much money and there is a web site worth looking at that has a really decent switchbox.

I am more of a believer in switchboxes than I am in Y-adaptors.
