Should I sell Classe CP60 and get a phono stage ?

Hello,
I am combining my HT and music system, my wife told me to clear out the music system from the living room. I am getting a Anthem AVM-20, it has a bypass mode. I also have a Classe CP60 with a phono board. I could sell the Classe and get a high gain mc phono stage and use the AVM-20 or I could keep the Classe and use it HT direct input.
What do you think would be best?
Thanks
Ken

Jmcgrogan2, how do you get both the Classe and the Denon signal into you FR & FL? Do you use a y connector? doesn't that degrade the signal? I ask because I have an Anthem AVM30 (which I love, by the way), but I am thinking about selling it, my universal disk player, and my multichannel amp, and just buying a Denon 2805 to drive the Center/rears and using a DVDO scaler attached to my 400 disc SonyES DVD/SACD player to upconvert. Then, buying a turntable and pre-amp (with Phono Stage), and still using my Maggie 3.6R's with the Innersound ESL MKII amp. Wow, that took a long time to type. But, I was concerned that if I use a y connector, I will just screw up the singnal so much, that it wouldn't be worth it anyway?

What do you think?

Thanks, I bought a pre-amp, and plan on running it through the tape loop for movies and surround. I think that I am going to connect my sub via both speaker and LFE input as well. Once again, thanks for everyones help.
