Hello Inmates,
I have been venturing closer to getting HT system slowly. At present I have a 5 channel Rotel amp and I recently purchased a Philips DVD795SA deck, (Good price at QVC now if interested $139). Other than that I have a couple of stereo tube preamps, one the foreplay.
What I�m wondering is if I could use the 6 channel audio output of the Philips direct? What I�m thinking is fronts and rears to the two preamps, then amp, then speakers. Center to an active monitor of some sort. And Sub directly to a active sub.
The Philips does seem to have some volume adjustment for individual speakers, though I�m sure it is not the way to control volume in everyday use.
Main question, can this work?
Randy

  So what I'm thinking is OK, except I would need to control 4 different volume controls. Do you know of a solution, something like the Creek OBH? remote control with 6 channels? I'm not letting go of my tube preamp for 2 channel, every surround preamp I've auditioned pales sorely in comparison.
  There must be something out there, huh?
