Using my Power Amp + my receiver


I have a Carver AV405 multichannel power amp and also a Sony STR DE-985 receiver.

I was thinking that I could maybe use the power amp to drive the fronts, surrounds and center and use the receiver only to do the decoding.

Is it a good idea...how can I do this ???

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for all the replies.

The receiver does have one set of pre outs, they must be for the front speakers.
I do have a Jeff Rowland preamp, I use my system mainly for 2 channel music, but nevertheless thought that using the Carver would surely improve the sound.

I will give it a try and let you guys know, thanks again.
