2 channel preamp will give you what you are looking for

If music listening is that important to you then using a HT preamp/processor will not give you "audiophile quality 2-channel sound". I suggest that you add a dedicated 2 channel preamp to do music duties. In fact, you could still use your Yamaha RXV-995 receiver to do HT duties. Simply run the front preamp outputs from the RX-V995 to the 2 channel preamp. Some 2 channel preamps will have a processor loop or bypass and if that is the case then connect the RX-V995 to that input. If not then connect the RX-V995 to an available input on the 2 channel preamp such as the AUX input. Connect the 2 channel preamp to your new external amp and you are set for both music and HT. Connect your CD player to the 2 channel preamp for music duites. Further all you would need is an additional 2 channel amp.
