This topic discussed many times before. The best way is to separate home theater system from the audio system, so optimal way would be to have home theater receiver connect to own speakers.

"Optimal" as noted would be 'bare bones' in the audio segment 'round here, And agreed, the field has been plowed to bedrock many X times, so... Success on both fronts asks for a subtle approach as to the marriage of same, in spaces that can uncooperative in too many ways.... Been doing AV/HT before the HT name went 'household necessity' to the masses; so have been there too many times; managed to save some sort of sanity....even if some will disagree with that.... ;) Play loud and often, J |
For what it’s worth, I read each response a couple times over a day or two & compare it to the others. I really do appreciate all the responses. I really do. I usually wait till the next great slows down & thank everyone. I see other people do this all the time. So, pick yourself up by your pamper straps & don’t be so sensitive. |
Sorry OP, I disagree, feedback essential so that we know that we aren’t wasting our time trying to help you. You still haven’t answered “does your preamp have a HT pass through?”. In laymans terms for a surround system you’ll need something to split the signal into channels (preamp-processor), provide amplification to each channel, followed by a speaker per channel. A HT (home theatre) pass through on a 2-channel preamp allows use of your 2-channel speakers in your surround setup. If your 2-channel preamp does NOT have a HT bypass feature, I suspect your only option is to directly wire your 2-channel speakers like the rest of the surround speakers from your surround-preamp-processor. |
